So you are accusing me of making up data or using bad data.    Because obviously that is how I roll!

Good Wins - Wins over Tourney Teams in the top 12 seed lines (or last 4 teams out).    (Basically only teams that would get in as at large's or be very close)
Bad Losses - Q3 or Q4 losses as defined by the NCAA committee.

The table basically shows that the best teams were not doing that well (gathering good wins) and the bad teams were really bad compared to other conferences as were the middle of the pack.

I would have posted RPI and NET's by conference, but people seeing a list of conference RPI's where the big 4 was .56 to .59 and the ACC was .54 would think is not that big a difference... even though it is.    Or the list of NET's which also don't show magnitude of "badness" as clearly as that chart of good wins and losses.

But let's start with the NET's and RPI.

2021 NET- 2021 wasn't even a particularly great year for the ACC OOC, but at least they hung around all the top conferences except the Big Ten.
