Thirteen Ridiculous Months Of Big East Football News - A Timeline

No conference has experienced more consistent upheaval and instability both on the field, and among its membership, than the Big East. With Todd Graham's departure to Arizona State after coaching Pittsburgh less than one calendar year, here's a look at the past 54 weeks in Big East football, just to give outsiders a sense of what it's like to cover this conference. This is hardly an exhaustive list, but it captures what has been the biggest soap opera of a year for a conference I can remember.

January 1, 2011 - 8-4 UConn Blown Out In The Fiesta Bowl - UConn, who went 8-4 in the regular season but 5-2 in the Big East, went to the Fiesta Bowl and was dominated by Big 12 champion Oklahoma.

January 3, 2011 - Randy Edsall Leaves UConn for Maryland - After leading his team to a BCS bowl for the first time in school history, Randy Edsall leaves UConn to take the head coaching position at Maryland. In his opening press conference, Edsall coins the joke of the college football season by calling Maryland his "dream job".
