Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 5023742, member: 1969"] It was 9-3 during the regular season, so I assume that updated figure with post-season is correct. It's a great stat, but pre-tourney OOC play, that helps structure the form of the bracket, goes beyond those 12 games. ACC network probably didn't mention the following. 1) The Big 12 went 28-16 (64%) against the other 4 power conferences in regular season The ACC went 22-29 (43%)against the other 4 power conferences in regular season. 2) So B12 won 31-25 (55%) overall and 31-32 (49%) overall. 3) in Q3 games (generally most games are out of P6) Big 12 went 25-1, and the ACC went 26-8. That's 8 questionable losses vs mostly non P6 schools vs 1. Those things create an overall gap of some substance between the conferences. You can't seed one higher than the other because of 12 games against much bigger data. The gap was exaggerated in NET I believe by how the B12 dominated Q4 games better than others. [/QUOTE]
