National Semi Final. UVA beat Texas Tech in the title game.Also ironic how awful Auburn and UVA have been in the tournament other than the one year they met in the final.
It's the March Madness tradition to ignore all the data that doesn't make the point we want to make.Nothing like making a pronouncement on a season of work because of results in a single elimination tournament on neutral courts.
There are trends though. And year over year certain conferences over and others under perform .Nothing like making a pronouncement on a season of work because of results in a single elimination tournament on neutral courts.
Everyone was bitching about Alabama being so high in the NET. Now they're in the S16. Does that make them good despite a mediocre record?There are trends though. And year over year certain conferences over and others under perform .
This seems to be a complete non sequitur with regards to what I posted . My post refers to a general trend year over year involving entire conferences and your statement refers to 1 team in one tournament. I think someone discussing alien abductions or cattle mutilation would involve a more pertinent response to what I wrote .Everyone was bitching about Alabama being so high in the NET.

ACC network just showed a stat that ACC is 12 - 3 against Big 12 this season.. That seems crazy but that is what they saidWhat’s there record ??? Need to stick to football!!!!! What a joke!!
Of course. just like your "trend" that someone can extrapolate an entire con conference overall ability to win basketball games based on the results of single game elimination tournaments on neutral courts.This seems to be a complete non sequitur with regards to what I posted .

Yes, 10 or 15 games is a pretty small sample. But the SEC and Big 12 lost most of those games, including a bunch where they were the "favorite" to win, while the ACC won them...Of course. just like your "trend" that someone can extrapolate an entire con conference overall ability to win basketball games based on the results of single game elimination tournaments on neutral courts.

Plus outside Clemson choking their lead, the ACC teams won convincinglyYes, 10 or 15 games is a pretty small sample. But the SEC and Big 12 lost most of those games, including a bunch where they were the "favorite" to win, while the ACC won them...
You can't say results are irrelevant, especially when they are the most important games of the year.
Additionally, you could argue a whole 30 game season is a small sample. There's a reason the NBA plays 82.
Do we ignore all the results and just decide things are how we say they are?
In years where the ACC sucks in the tournament, nobody here is saying it doesn't matter. We gnash our teeth and say "Wait till next year!"
No then people would brag about the regular season. People just use whatever stats they can to make the point they want to make imho.Yes, 10 or 15 games is a pretty small sample.

Single games statistical significance add up when you have hundreds of these single games. Not sure what you are on about other than to claim no useful information can be gathered from tournament performance at all. It’s all random noise.Of course. just like your "trend" that someone can extrapolate an entire con conference overall ability to win basketball games based on the results of single game elimination tournaments on neutral courts.
