Tournament Thread Final Four

[Deep Creek]

Texas
Texas Tech
TCU
West Virginia
Kansas
Oklahoma
Kansas State

Holy crap, not 60% of their teams 70% of the Big12 made the tournament.

Soooooo Baylor, Iowa State, Ok State failed to make the tournament......

...and Okie Lite swept Kansas in the regular season.

...and Okie Lite swept Kansas in the regular season.

The 8-10 and 21-15 Oklahoma State team....yes, Kansas was deserving of #1.

Kansas also got blown out to Arizona State in non conference.

Now there's a fizzler right there. Faded down the stretch.

30% in the Sweet 16, Hell, 60% of the conference made the tournament. It's easy to pad records when you only have 10 teams in your conference.

You had 60% of your teams in the tournament.

this logic is dumb, because you're playing those good teams twice. In unbalanced leagues, you often don't have to play the top teams twice.

There is no hiding or record padding in the Big East or Big 12.

 

[Hitman Hart]

saying that a conference that had:
70% of their teams in the NCAAT
40% of their teams in the Sweet 16
30% of their teams in the Elite 8
80% of their teams in the kenpom top 50

..is a bad conference is a hell of a hill to die on. To each their own, I guess.

 

[The Derski]

OD dropping basketball knowledge = priceless.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Based on winning a rather weak conference?

Based on winning a top 3 conference regarding to every metric

And they won both the regular season and post season.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Team is showing up. Nice performance so far.

 

[Wishbone]

They got favorable seedings, again for being thought to be a tough conference, but were weak overall.

Until the Big12 builds another prominent basketball power (Um hello Texas?) Then Kansas should never be higher than a 2 seed.

You know OU was in the final four 2 years ago right? OU also has had 2 NPOY the last 10 years and had another up for consideration this year. No other school has had more than 1 the last decade.
