Who are your Final Four Teams?

It just depends on how you look at it.

 

More losses = Worse seed = Tougher road to the Final Four

 

The selection committee wouldn't frown on a six or seven loss BEast team as much as a team with a similar record from another conference... But what I was referring to was the battle-tested experience BE teams get in conference play. How many other leagues do you never have a night off?

I understand the battle tested argument, but there are two sides to is.

 

Never have a night off? Check the bottom five or six teams in the conference.

Brutal conference schedules for BEast teams benefit them in the tournament... Hard to argue otherwise.

 

2008: Big East

1 - Elite Eight, 3 Sweet 16's

 

2007: Big East

1 - Final Four, 2 Sweet 16's

 

2006: Big East

2 Elite Eight, 3 Sweet 16's

 

Not bad, but not great for a huge SUPER-POWER either.

2006 I thought they had a chance to win the title from a few teams. Didn't get that feeling in 07 or 08. It's was a very young conference then that is now VERY experienced...
