     Easy Ron, easy! I think its only natural to defend one's own school, and
thus one's own conference. I will root for Big Ten and Southwest Conference
schools out of some sense of loyalty, but I would be an idiot to think that
there are not good teams in other conferences. I enjoy good football, and there
are good teams all over the country. Each conference has its share of dogs and
winners. Although the Big 8 has its share of bad teams, 3 out of 8 nationally
prominent is not bad at all. And about the Rose Bowl. I think it's a given
that if an LA school is in the Rose Bowl, regardless of how much of an 
underdog, by some act of God, they will trounce the Big Ten. It's that simple.
