Final Four - Where is the BiG?

They had a case of tightness of the sphincter.
Their main tournament was their conference tournament. After that, they were pretty much just all focused on mid-terms.
There’s little chance you really believe that. And if you do you’re foolish
There he is. No basketball for the east coast... beautiful. The New York elites can wine and dine themselves, behind masks mind you, on past memories. Like when MSG mattered. Or North Carolina. Done. Thanks covid. Maybe it continues next year?
The B1G rode the coattails of the narrowest possible ACC\B1G challenge victory margins on the way to being overrated and over-seeded, while the ACC was under-seeded.
Big 10 is in the same place as the ACC, SEC, and Big East are. Watching the final four from the sidelines along with everyone else outside of Texas and the west coast.
You are onto something, actually. The East Coast was and Big Ten elites were too concerned about Covid. Couldn't even run a good practice, too concerned about social distancing, wearing masks, etc. Basketball wasnt a focus for them this year.
Hard to say when they were under seeded. Higher seeds means better matchups and easily would have given them more teams that went further.
How many sweet 16 teams did they have vs the Other major conferences, when their matchups were tougher based on their seed line.? The only conference who markedly outperformed them is the old southwest conference that doesn’t exist...and of course the Pac12.
Did the lack of focus start with March Madness? Before that, you had the Big 10 as the best conference. Now, you're just full of excuses.
Yea because California wasn’t. The 49ers weren’t even allowed to play - they played some “home” games in AZ. The PAC was last of the big conferences to even decide play football (I think). GTFOH with this garbage.
you can make the case of bemchmarking them against the acc and say they were
Good point
That Baylor was literally shut form for weeks multiple times including during the big 12 tournament shows they were slack
