25 years covers the worst stretch in pac 12 history, so yeaOne Final Four? That's the same number as the Mountain West, WCC, American, and C-USA over the past 3 years. Year after year, the PAC-12 is consistently rated below all the other high major conferences, and even some mid majors, usually somewhere around 6 or 7. The B1G has had almost 3 times as many Final Fours as the PAC 12 in the past 25 years, and the B1G is absolutely a second rate, overrated league.
The position that the PAC 12 is criminally underrated is untenable, with no basis in reality. And the results on the court, nor the metrics that prove it, have anything whatsoever to do with anyone's bedtime.
Last 3 seasons they’ve had a bunch of elite 8 teams and a final four team despite that consistent ranking
Also - your inclusion of the WCC in that post made me laugh since Gonzaga was the #1 overall seed I believe during their final four run
All fair points.
