Considering the Big East Football program is looking to add a set of schools that aren't even east of the Mississippi River - Houston, Southern Methodist, San Diego St., Boise St. - the moniker of "Big East" becomes a mockery.

So, we need to come up with a new conference name.

Presented here is a list of names that popped to my mind over the last few days. Some are silly. Some are trite. Only ONE can be the winner, and be the best possible renaming we all can ever hope for.

Comment as you see fit. Also, no UCF trolls allowed. Get your own SB site.

Great. I gotta work on the word count limit. Um, booger! No, still not enough words. Ahhhh, Cheddar Cheese! Hurm.

Kat Dennings Kat Dennings Kat Dennings... no, she didn't pop up. Curse you, Bloody Mary!

...And as I sat there, brooding on the old unknown world, I thought of Gatsby's wonder when he first picked out the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock. He had come a long way to this blue lawn and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him, somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city, where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.
Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter — tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther... And one fine morning...

There, that got the word count up! :-)
