Big East: Best & Worst Games of Week 3

Best: Virginia Tech 2-0 @ Pittsburgh 0-2 gives the Big East a chance to gain a little respect around the country. Pitt, under new Head Coach Paul Chryst, is off to an extremely rough start… losing to an FCS team, Youngstown State, 31-17 and Big East Conference foe. Cincinnati, 34-10… needs to right the ship ASAP. While Va Tech comes rolling into Pittsburgh….. with wins over Georgia Tech, 20-17 in OT and an FCS opponent, Austin Peay, 42-7. These teams were once both in the Big East and will be in the same conference next year when Pitt joins the ACC! The teams have not played in the past five years. Right now… on paper… this does not appear to be a good game… but given the Panthers situation.. they will bring what the have into Saturday’s contest…. I, for one, am interested to see what they actually do have to bring!

Worst:  Delaware State @ Cincinnati is an absolute clunker! While usually competitive in the MEAC …. the best the Hornets have been is 3-8 since 2009… and with no relief in sight. They played Michigan in 2009 and…you got it …… got hammered 63-6. Cincy is 1-0 easily dispatching Pitt 34-10 . This game will be over in the 1st quarter and the Bearcats better hope they get through injury free… as they have a bye week and then take on Va Tech @ FedExField!
