Who's Better in Football? Big East? ACC?

"Today, Big East football is better than ACC football" says DICK JERARDI of Philly.com
*see full article here*

Just as a reminder (since it's hard to differentiate which team play basketball, which teams play football, and what few teams do both!) here are the Big East teams... in football:
























































































  Team Over-All W-L Conf. W-L Nat'l Rank Power Rating Sched. Rank
1. West Virginia 12-0 7-0 4 83.01 24
2. Louisville 11-1 6-1 8 83.52 50
3. Rutgers 10-2 5-2 18 77.88 71
4. South Florida 8-4 4-3 35 76.27 48
5. Pitt 7-5 3-4 55 67.30 49
6. Cincinnati 6-6 2-5 65 69.59 46
7. Connecticut 4-8 1-6 91 57.84 54
8. Syracuse 1-11 0-7 111 54.50 22

It's hard to compare a 8 team league with a 12 team league, but I will try...

Big East/ACC/edge
1. WVU/Vtech - wash
2. UL/FSU - wash/UL edge
3. RU/BC - wash/RU edge
4. USF/Gtech - ACC
5. Pitt/CU - ACC
6. Cinn/Miami/Mary - ACC
7. Conn/Wake/NCST - ACC
8. SU/UNC/Duke/UVA - wash/ACC edge

I based these on the last couple of years and potential for this year. I added multiple teams towards the end of the list to balance the # of teams. I give the overall edge to the ACC with a slight top edge to the Big East.
