Title: Is My Math Correct?
Post by: MuggsyB on March 25, 2022, 08:34:58 PM
I don't see any of the nine B14 teams left in the draw?  So that's zero teams past the S16?

I feel like it would be more so asking if your eye sight is correct

And yes, it is.

The last current Big 10 team to win a title was not a Big 10 team. They just hired the Seton Hall coach, so they probably will not win an NCAA tournament game for a long time.

And the Big East has something like 7 Champions in that time period?

(UCONN 4, VU 2, SU 1)?

But Cuse (2003) and Louisville (2113, vacated) were Big East's

Yes, definitely.  Marquette’s last Final 4 was C-USA, RIP

9 teams flaming out before the E8 cannot be overstated.  But the fact that the 🦚🦚 slammed the door on Purdue just makes this so much more enjoyable.

March is random.  Still, suck it Big Ten

Meanwhile the worst power 6 league may have three teams in the final four. As I said before there is too much emphasis put on November/December wins. The best teams early are not necessaryly the best teams in March.

Of course. No one claimed otherwise. And what do you mean “too much emphasis?”  You mean treating those games like actual games?

Big Ten was overrated from the start. UW and Illinois won the title and neither was anywhere near a top team, Both had huge flaws.

It’s an interesting look for Marquette fans to be calling out anyone else’s tourney success considering MU’s recent track record.

Good point.  Certainly can’t discuss the rest of the sport.  Dynamite drop, Monty.

Lighten up Farley. You are on a college basketball fan board.

Plus, we all get reminded by the media all the time and every year how long the Big Ten has gone without a NC. Seems most basketball fans are aware of their ineptitude (compared to the expectations). Hardly an MU fan thing to do.
