BIG EAST Basketball Power Rankings: Week 12

Welcome back to the 2010-2011 Big East Power Rankings. The rules are simple, we've invited the SB Nation (or friend of SB Nation) blog for each team to cast a vote. They rank the teams from one to 16 and then we bring you the results. As always, thanks to The UConn Blog for hosting.


What in the name of all that is good and holy going on in THE BEAST lately? Just 10 days ago I was tweeting that it was painfully obvious who the class of the conference was (Pitt, Syracuse, UConn and Villanova) - and guess what? ALL OF THEM LOST THIS WEEK!

Now I've got egg on my face (not the first time since I started doing this, and not the last). So how did I compensate? Not rationally, that's for sure. A better man would lick their wounds and curl up to heal. I emptied the clip.

Check out the motherpost for more details - but it was a clean sweep of the awards this week for The Nova Blog. Cheers, Andrew Porter.

One great thing did happen though. Everybody's sweetheart, the St. John's Red Storm, gave everybody's enemy, the Duke Blue Devils, the BIG EAST BEATDOWN OF THE YEAR!
