Umm, Exactly

From this week's Sporting News, courtesy of that overprotective lion of the major conferences, Mike DeCourcy:

"Don't read too much into Butler's record - mid-majors are losing as much as they're winning."

Well, yes. Losing as much as they're winning. Which is to say, winning as much as they're losing, which is a heck of a lot better than they're supposed to be doing, if the BCS conferences are really as superior as their supporters say they are. If you're going to take the position that mid-major schools aren't that good, then the BCS conferences should be beating the holy hell out of them, not breaking even.

Get used to it, fellas. The mid-majors are IN UR HOUSE, TAKING UR NCAA BIDZ, and will be for the forseeable future.
