Best hoops conference of this season

[LASports96]

This, my friends, is what sets Vanderbilt and the SEC conference apart from all others.

Translation: "I hate the SEC and you should too!"

Clearly the SEC is right there. Solid from top-to-bottom.

Crack kills

B1G >>> PAC

This isn't even a question. It is kinda like their football conference this year, no elite teams at all but they have pretty good depth. They probably only get 6 teams in while the B1G could get 8. It's just the bottom of the B1G is bad. The B1G has elite teams, the PAC doesn't, that is the difference.

Yeah, go ahead and name them.

Guess you aren't going to get a response to this one ralphie.

I don't know if it means anything at the end, but as for beginning the tourney/bids:

Big12 only has 10 teams, and will get 7 in the tourney.

Now will that equate to tourney wins? I don't know. Like every game, depends on matchups, especially in later rounds.

Yeah DC, I figured I better not hold my breath on this one

I don't think there are any elite teams this year. There are add one really good teams but the best team in the country this year probably doesn't even make the FF last year

Considering Michigan State are better this year and made the Final Four last year, I can't fully buy this statement. If you'd said "any of the best four elite teams from last year (KY, WI, AZ, Duke) would take it this year," I would agree with that.

I think that was pretty much the point rmilia was making. MSU wasn't elite last year (albeit still very good), but you don't always HAVE to be elite to make the final four. They are definitely much better than they were last year, but not necessarily your typical "elite" team that we are used to seeing

This still keeps me up at night.

B12 is the only answer if you look top to bottom. If you look only at top 3 or 4 it's B12/B10/ACC. Under no circumstances is it any conference other than 1 of those 3

LOL

This rings more true now.

NOT the B1G, that's for sure...


Purdue blew a 13 point lead with 5 minutes to go, MSU lost as a #2 seed, and Iowa had a 3 point lead - - - and fouled a jump shooter - with 2.1 seconds to go - it was a 3. Now in overtime.

SMH. Ohio State wasn't good enough to compete in that conference.

 

[jeffro151]

teh ACC looking mighty good with 6 teams in the round of 32.

 

[night]

teh ACC looking mighty good with 6 teams in the round of 32.

That's because the ACC is the best this year with the Big 12 coming in as the second best conference.

 

[Wishbone]

The old Big 8 is 3-1.

 

[jontaejones]

Big East is playing well, but they'll probably lose half their teams today.

 

[NCChiFan]

Shoot, looking like 6 teams in the sweet 16! Best conference obviously.

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

ACC is clearly the best best conference. Playing a hell of a tourni as well.
