It doesn't surprise me...it's sarcasm, going back to another thread where I was attempted to be persuaded that the Pac-10 is elite, and that there's quite a few teams (besides USC) who could probably beat Florida, Georgia, and LSU.
The MWC does NOT have some very good teams, they are just this year's WAC. There are some GOOD teams in BYU, TCU, and Utah, but they have a shitload of bottom feeders that caught the Pac-10 on an off-day, who most likely overlooked all of those MWC teams.
