Big East Scenarios Update 11/27

(Updated to include Saturday's results.)

After the Backyard Brawl went to West Virginia, each team's path to the Big East BCS bid now shapes up this way:

CONNECTICUT
Option 1: Beat South Florida.
Option 2 (Armageddon!): Lose to USF, Cincinnati beats Pitt, Rutgers beats WVU. That would create a five-way tie at 4-3, and UConn wins any tie they're a part of.

WEST VIRGINIA
Option 1: Beat Rutgers, and UConn loses to USF.

PITTSBURGH
Option 1: Beat Cincinnati, Rutgers beats WVU, and UConn loses to USF.

SYRACUSE
Option 1 (Armageddon!): Cincinnati beats UConn, Cincinnati beats Pitt, USF beats UConn, Rutgers beats West Virginia. If all this happens, Syracuse will be tied with Pitt, Cincy, WVU, and USF at 4-3. West Virginia and Syracuse both went 3-1 against teams in this group, and Syracuse beat WVU, so Syracuse wins Big East BCS tiebreaker. Syracuse's five-way parlay shot at the Big East BCS bid lost when UConn beat Cincinnati.
(NOTE FROM VOODOO: Sorry Gary, this one's off the table after UConn beat Cincinnati.)
