Are you kidding?  I watch college basketball about 4 or 5 nights a week on average.  I watch a ton of teams from other conferences, across all levels, all season long.

Are you aware that the ACC basically had 1 team ranked all season, with that changing only the last week or so of the regular season?  Or how we only got 5 teams into the NCAA tournament, when we routinely have 7, 8, 9 or more with several of them ranked in the top 10 / 25?

I'm not even sure how someone can claim with intellectual honesty that the ACC wasn't down.  Just because there might not be obvious elite teams [which is also subjectively debatable] doesn't change that fact.  Nor does other conferences like the B1G not having the quality they usually have.

Edit -- I'm not trying to get into an argument with you about who watches more basketball, upperdeck.  Honestly, one of the things I often wonder / have long suspected-- especially about the crowd who thinks that the program isn't on a steady decline -- is whether they watch college basketball outside of SU games [and a few other random games here and there], because the difference in quality is often stark.
