Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2734563, member: 289"] I have argued for years that the regular season, especially the conference season, is a better measure of a team's strength than the single elimination post season. I always got told that the post season, specifically the NCAA tournament was all that counted. If we are now going to acknowledge that the regular season is the better measure of a team, then we should learn to appreciate regular season accomplishments. if we can win a conference regular season title, (even if it's unofficial), win 30 games, get ranked #1, we should remember the teams that did that as fondly as teams that had good post season runs. As far as predicting how far a team will go in the tournament, all i want is to be curious, rather than nervous on selection Sunday. The regular season can get a you a good seed but that's all it can do. The rest is a spin of the roulette wheel, (as Virginia found out last year). [/QUOTE]
