Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 1717138, member: 5685"] The don't play in a real conference. So people are tricked by their "success" every year. Sorry but any team that wins 12 years in a row is more an indictment of the conference than a measure of success. In the last 12 seasons the B12 has had only three Final Four teams. Is it any wonder Kansas wins every year? The three years before those 12 seasons the B12 put 5 teams in the Final Four. That was great. However the 13 years before that they had only 3 teams in the Final Four. So over the past 28 seasons the conference has had 11 Final Four teams. Of those 6 were Kansas. Oklahoma and Okie State have each made two Final Fours in the last 28 years and Texas once. In fairness WV has made a Final Four as a member of the Big East. If Oklahoma fails to win the title this year that will make only ONE title in the last 28 years for the conference. The B1G and P12 have similar problems. The B1G has only ONE title in the last 27 years! But they at least get teams to the Final Four having 20 teams over that span. Also they now have Maryland who has 2 FFs and a national title over that time period. The P12 has had only FIVE Final Four teams the last 19 years and 0.0 titles. They have ZERO Final Four teams in the last 8 years! Utah is now in the conference but their last Final Four was in 1998. Even the SEC is poor outside their top 2 programs (Kentucky & Florida). Over the last 20 seasons the other teams have one Final Four and zero in the last 10 years. Meanwhile the ACC has had 4 schools make it in the last 15 seasons. In addition Louisville has made it as a Big East team. Schools currently in the ACC have won 4 of the last 7 National titles and could win this year as well. Really until things change the ACC deserves 10 teams every year (9 this year because of Louisville). Give ACC teams a seed on each line: 1. UNC 2. UVA 3. None (Louisville) 4. Miami 5. Duke 6. ND 7. Pitt 8. SU 9. VA Tech 10. GA Tech If other conferences want to complain tell them to start winning games. [/QUOTE]
