When comparing conferences, its hard because you can't confuse the strength of the top two or three teams with the overall conference.  There may be a team or two in the Southland better than the top one or two in the Big Sky but overall as a conference it is tough to compare.  I agree with Vince, its time the Big Sky steps up and not only wins non conference and playoff games but pounds its chest a little louder about FBS wins, etc.
