Conference Performance

[lurch91]

Read in another thread about conference performance, thought I'd at how the BE was doing compared to the others.

* I understand some traditionally strong Universities/teams are struggling this year, so this just looks at how this year's conferences stack up.  Also, I understand basketball doesn't drive the bus.

**When looking at team records, I only looked at Conference Records as teams can inflate wins with cupcakes during the Out of Conference season.

*** Games through February 20, 2013
Conference   Total Members   Members => .500^   Percent => .500^   Teams Ranked
ACC                  12                    5                        0.417                   2
A10                   16                    9                        0.563                   2
BE                     15                   10                        0.667                   6
B1G                   12                    5                        0.417                   5
B12                   10                    6                        0.600                   3
CUSA                12                    6                        0.500                   1
PAC12               12                    7                        0.583                   2
SEC                   14                    8                        0.571                   1

^In conference play.

Below is how the current new conference would stack up, again I understand that these current records would be different due to level of competition.
            
C7+                  12                   9                 0.750                   4
+ Assumes inclusion of St. Louis, Butler, Xavier, VCU and Creighton            

The new conference fares very favorably compared to the rest of the BIG/BCS conferences.

Crazy how only 5 B1G teams are above .500, and they are all really good, there are some bad teams in that conference though

Every conference has to have bad teams to have ones with good records, look at ours, Rutgers 4 wins, Seton Hall and DePaul 2, and USF 1.

The difference is in the middle where everyone in our conference is just all jumbled together

I hope this translates favorably for the BE and the C7+ when it comes to Selection Sunday.

Your first and last columns are the only important ones.  Everyone's tied for first in aggregate conference record.  The rest of it is just a study on where the median falls.
