They seem to have stepped it up. I'd love to see Ohio State play them anywhere.

I think they're a couple games short of a full schedule.

The funny party is that it isn't much harder than their MWC schedule was.

To be honest it will really depend on what order they play all these teams. Since they no longer play in a little sisters of the poor conference and are in a big bad BCS conference they can't take any weeks off now.

When did The Big East escape "little sisters of the poor" status? I must have missed it.

A tweet from Joe Schad covering the Big East media Day. Notice the comment from the TCU AD

schadjoe Joe Schad
The Big East would like expansion possibilities resolved by September 2012
TCU AD Chris Del Conte says depth in Big East top to bottom is better than MWC

I could rest my case there and walk away, but I'll add on to that.

Do you really expect the Athletic Director at TCU to come out and say "You know what, the level of competition is better in the MWC, top-to-bottom, than in the Big East. I can't wait to be apart of the Big East family next season!" He'd have his ass chewed apart by the Big East AD's so quickly.

Furthermore, I think he is correct that, as a whole, the conference is better. Especially since Utah and BYU left the conference. I said it wasn't that much harder. The Big East is a freaking joke.

Right now it doesn't appear to be, but it really all depends on where the rest of those Big East teams are by next year. In the MWC the other teams weren't going to get substantially better in the near future. The Big East on the other hand could be a lot better by 2012.
