The top half of the new SEC will be on par with or better than the top half of the B1G. But the bottom half of the Big Ten is better than the bottom half of the SEC. Maybe that will change some day, but it hasn't happened yet.

Auburn Making Strides - Aubie AU - 4/4 12:47:15

Good. The SEC needs Auburn, SC, and Georgia to step it up - AndyTiger MU

- 4/4 12:52:52

With SC adding Coach Martin and our incoming class - Aubie AU - 4/4 13:07:57

cut that to top 30 teams and it paints a different picture. - phrejd KC - 4/4 13:44:58

KY and Florida in the past 6 years. Only MSU and ONLY ku - Diamond Dave MU

vandy, UT, and bama disagree. SEC top 5 vs. - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:31:16

Finally, some sense. The bottom of Iowa, Ill, NW, Minn, - Diamond Dave MU

I'm sorry, but this just isn't true - AndyTiger MU

- 4/4 12:51:34

You really think Minn, NW, Penn State, and the Nubs are - Diamond Dave MU

- 4/4 13:08:42

Still waiting for you to use any facts here. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 13:15:26

actually, this was a comparison of the top of the SEC vs. - phrejd KC - 4/4 13:40:13

No, that's not a fact. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 13:57:02

my point is i don't think that matters. bottom half teams - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:57:25

Maybe if you repeat it, it'll be true. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:35:19

Thank you Tom Izzo - Diamond Dave MU

- 4/4 12:37:50

It's your choice to be ignorant. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:42:32

why not "Final 8's" or "Final 16's" or Final 32's? - FF's - 90Tiger MU - 4/4 13:28:40

Because everyone else in the college BB world - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 14:00:19

Here we go with the Natl Semi-Final appearances list - Diamond Dave MU

"modern era" - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 13:09:36

so now it's total final 4s over the past 16 years? - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:47:28

Are you confused about the start of the B12? - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:48:26

since b12 didn't appear in the tourney until '97 - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:55:02

yes, the '96-'97 season. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:56:41

so final 4s since 97? that's the criteria? (nm) - phrejd KC - 4/4 13:00:20

nobody is saying those are good teams. they are horrible. - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:37:44

Care to look at actual facts or just DD's meanderings? - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:38:50

Or, tell us how NW, Penn St., Minn, and Nubs are even - Diamond Dave MU

Don't confuse him with facts. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:44:24

This is your use of logic? - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:43:47

don't know what DD's meanderings are. but if you have facts - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:41:40

Vandy loses everyone off of that team. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:20:14

And Illinois loses Leonard. New guy better get it going or - Uncle John MU - 4/4 12:46:05

Nonsense. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:49:35

- 4/4 12:49:39

Never said it was the only criteria. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:34:06

just the only criteria you choose to use? (nm) - phrejd KC - 4/4 12:36:18

I didn't realize we were only allowed 1 post on the topic. - tjwheeler UI - 4/4 12:37:24
