Yes - I make that assumption.
Could be wrong but I consider BCs competition like Providence, Pitt, Uconn, Cuse, Notre Dame, and even seton Hall in a much tougher category than Utah's which includes Wyoming, NM, BYU, SDSU, UNLV, etc.
Dont get me wrong - I dont take anything away from them for playing tough in their two losses vs air force, staying within 9 at Texas Tech, and splitting with just about everyone in their conference - which can be very competitive. But BC playing well in the Big east is an entirely different level.
Just one mans opinion
