in 16 of the 20 seasons. Two of the misses were pre-1980 when the number of teams invited was lower, both of those times they finished 2nd in conference but did not get a bid.
That is a good benchmark for MU operating at an optimal level. College basketball is much worse now and with more teams invited, so it should be easier all other factors being equal to duplicate that level.
