    Big Ten at the bottom is horrible. Boston College is the worse of the worse. Their football and basketball team went winless in conference play. You got scholarships and you can't get enough talent to win one conference game. That's pathetic.

    Northwestern, Rutgers, Wazzu, Wake Forest, Boston College and Vanderbilt. Minnesota and Illinois don't deserve to be mentioned as bottom feeders. Sure maybe this year but they're a level ahead of those other crap teams historically. Minny is good at hockey and Illinois always has at least a decent, if not good CBB program. They were in the NCAA title game just a decade ago remember.

    Boston College Basketball was a solid program not that long ago though.

    Rutgers had some good seasons while they were in the Big East.

    Its a revolving door really. Mediocre teams in power conferences fluctuate it seems.

    Illinois, they are a mess. They hire and fire coaches faster than most schools can recruit players.

    Yes, even better in mid to late 1990s with the "Big Fundamental".

    Oh.

    Rutgers and BC easily.

    Between the two of them, Football and Basketball, 2 conference wins.

    Both were rutgers. One hoops. One foots.

    Looking at past history as MO states
    BC , Rutgers hasn't had those moments like BC , at least I don't think so
    BC fans I'm sure are about to lose it watching their athletic program

    Rutgers should be kicked out of the Big Ten.

    Im up in MA, but could care less about BC sports.. UMass is my alma mater.. Dont care much for them either.. Hard to get behind a team that doesnt win.. More people went to the tailgates than the actual football games.. I should have went to Clemson as that was the only other school I applied to. Love sports too, but hard to go to the games when they lose by 40 every game. At least they kept it competitive at the end of the year this year (Umass football). They almost beat a ranked Toledo team.

    Rutgers is a joke. Purdues was pretty shitty until this years basketball team bailed them out.

    Missouri probably has some rough years ahead in the near future.
