Forgot and Conference overall record

Big 10 = 160-37
Big 12 = 132-40

lol @ 1 and 2

As always, we will see who’s standing at the end.

Top of Big 12 >> anyone in B1G IMO and they boast 5 of top 11 in kenpom (even though I don’t think KU is very good)

You had this same argument for football until the Big has won the last couple championships obviously proved to be the best conference in football.

Basketball though I do agree. I just don’t see a team in the BIG that will be cutting the nets in bball. I think this years March madness will be interesting. Just haven’t seen a dominant team.

Isn't Arizona 11-1 in the Big 12 tied for 1st?

Pretty sure they are 0-2 against the Big 10

Wisconsin killed them and UCLA also beat them.

Pretty sure the Big 10 can compete with the Top

 

[cruelhalo]

Listen

BYU
Pittsburg
North Carolina
Vanderbilt
Arkansas
SMU
Boise State
Texas
Georgia
Gonzaga
Cincinnati

There are a few more that I feel NU should be ahead of, but those 11 have no business being ahead of Nebraska in any metric IMO

After North Carolina finishes getting curb stomped by Clemson, I'm sure they will be bumped up to a 3 or 4 seed.

WTF Sarcasm

In November when AZ’s new team was gelling?

Nice!

Winners win. Against the BIG, AZ didn't. They are what their record says they are.

 

[scarletred]

this is my least favorite thing about college football, by far

there should be no rankings until October 1st at the earliest.

They still rank basketball teams from the start of the season in the AP and Coaches polls.

They are what their record says they are.

Correct.

17-6 and 10th in kenpom, ahead of 17/18 B1G teams.

This is the worst the Big East has been since Creighton joined.

Still looking like a 4 bid league

Only got 3 in last year

That's great... that is because there are 4 teams and then a bunch of gimme wins

Let me guess... those 4 teams would dominate the Big 10?

100% of the Big East’s tourney teams reached the Sweet 16 last year.

Johnnies are pretty fun to watch.

So nice of you to take the time to post here, Mr Commissioner.
