But the Big East is so strong. Why are they so strong? Because they server the New York and Bristol (CT) media markets.
 
ACC was stronger than we got credit for, but most of our talent was young. Conference strength is determined in early season tournaments and OOC games. Young talent gets better as season goes along. Charles Barkley was right when he said Big Least had best coaching and they play harder, but less talent than other conferences.
 
The only two Big East teams to make it to the Sweet 16 did it because they beat other Big East teams.

VT really got screwed this year.

I was shocked when the #3 ACC team (FSU) got a 10 seed, but that allowed them to screw VT and put 3 more BE teams in.
 
BIG LEAST.


Nice job by FSU tonight. Did not see that one coming at all. They've rebounded really well despite losing Singleton.
 
BE - 11 9-9 (they had to get two in since they played each other)
Big Ten - 7 6-5 (looked strong before going 1-3 today)
Big 12 - 5 (3-3)
SE -5 (4-3)
ACC - 4 (7-1)
Pac 10 - 4 (4-3)
Atlantic 10 - 3 (3-2)
Mountain West - 3 (4-1)
CAA - 3 (4-2)

Let's hear it for the ACC the best conference in American (along with the Mountain West)
 
Big East

Wins: Clemson, Xavier, Indiana St., Missouri, Bucknell, Akron, UNC-Ash

Losses: George Mason, Kentucky, Morehead St., VCU, FSU, Butler, Gonzaga, plus beating themselves in 2 games

They only won 1 game that they were not supposed to win - Marquette over Xavier. Other than that, all of their wins are over lower seeded teams and they lost against every team seeded higher than them, as well.
 
But the BIG EAST IS SO STRONG

My favorite was the Louisville call...

Bill: "FOUL! FOUL! THAT'S GOTTA BE A FOUL!"

Verne, in the scariest voice imaginable: "NOOOO CALLLLLL"
