Mich St did play UNC and got their ass handed to them (Mich St could have had Suton and played 6 against 5 and still lost that game by double digits, that is how embarrassing that beatdown was). It was like Mike Tyson fighting a retarded kid. The fact is UNC is still playing and Ville isn't and if UNC was in their bracket UNC would still be playing. Find all the excuses you want it won't take away from the fact that UNC is the best. They play the teams in front of them and continue to burry them by double digits. That is all

[fiveteamer]

**** me I didn't make it

[Slim]

Nova looking very bad

[TPowell]

**** this, North Carolina is OBVIOUSLY the best team in the country. I still thnk UConn and Louisville could beat them but neither got far enough to play them. Big East was head and shoulders above ACC as a whole though

[Mac4Lyfe]

I've been reading this thread with much interest and I have to agree with Unde. Teams have to find a way to beat other teams with different styles. If you can't match up with ANY team then that's a YOU problem. My Gators made 2 straight title runs and had to face all kind of different style teams. Teams that ran, teams that played slow, half court teams, fast break teams, what have you. They beat every team they faced and that's the bottom line. You have to beat the teams in front of you. Does it matter that UNC didn't play Uconn or Ville? MSU put both of them away. UNC put MSU away earlier in the season but will have to do it again if they want to be champs. Excuses are for losers.

Although the Big East represented well, I have to disagree with them being head and shoulders above the ACC. Where's the Big East now??? They are all sitting at home. If your going to claim your the best, you have to beat the best and they didn't when it counted. Plus they had like half the teams in the dance. 3 number 1 teams and you can't get one into the final game? That's overrated IMO. The 3 Big East teams had very easy roads to the elite eight.

Saying the Big East is the best just because they had alot of teams in the dance is like saying the ACC was the best in football because they had alot of teams in bowl games.

your right Powell they are head and shoulders the best, they are starting to play like the beginning of the year, both those teams got ran out of the gym by a team UNC already smashed and will destroy again come monday. The funniest thing about any UNC game has been the pregame announcers trying to talk about a way to give the other team a chance.

thats stupid as hell, 1 elite team doesnt make a conference the best. Especially when you have 4-5 in another conference

[yisman]

they definitely had the easiest region.

They were the best team. They did not deserve the easiest region, with the weakest #2 seed and the weakest #3 seed.

Oh well.

[yisman]

the two conferences aren't close, as I was saying in another thread, and how far UNC got was irrelevant, as I also said.

The ACC had one elite team and a bunch of mediocre teams.

The ACC was, at best, the 4th best conference. The Big East was easily the best with Villanova, Pittsburgh, UConn, Louisville, etc.

UNC had the best team in the country, but one team does not an elite conference make.

[TPowell]

you mean UNC got the weakest 2 and 3 seed?

[yisman]

that's what I said, yeah. Their region had the weakest #2 and the weakest #3.

[TPowell]

oh I remember everyone saying that Mich. State might have been the weakest 2

[unde0087]

Powell, they will look weak come Monday night

Oh well.

Bullchit... I'm not a fan of UNC but to think playing LSU who could beat anyone and if it wasn't for Lawson they would have lost that game, then the Zag's who many thought would be in the final 4 to begin with and then Oklahoma who has the player of the year, a team that beat the snot of every other team. UNC probably had the hardest path to the finals. Now they have to beat the team that just embarrassed the best in the BE.

One team doesn't make a conference but neither does 5, 6, 7, 8 teams losing don't make a championship. The ACC was well represented with a bunch of teams as well and Duke made a deep run. So Duke was an elite 8 and UNC final 2. That's better than 2 final 4's and 1 elite 8 IMO. 3 BE teams that couldn't make the final game versus 2 ACC teams, one still dancing.

Look, I think the BE did very well this year. They are the deepest conference this year BUT to not win a championship has tainted any luster they may try and claim. I cannot say that they are the best conference because they didn't bring in the championship. Sorry BE fans.

[yisman]

LSU could not beat anyone. What were you watching?

LSU end of season:

barely beat Florida
barely beat Kentucky
Blown out by Vanderbilt at home
blown out by Auburn
Beat Kentucky
Blown out by Mississippi State


Oklahoma end of season:

Lost to Texas
Blown out by Kansas at home
beat Texas Tech
Blown out by Missouri
barely beat Oklahoma State at home
lost to Oklahoma State on a neutral court


UNC had a weak region and LSU and OU were not good teams for their seeding. OU deserved a #4 seed and LSU should've been a #10.

I'm not sure which part of this post is dumber:

A)Saying LSU could beat anyone this year when they played in the only major conference weaker than the ACC.

B)Saying that the best conference must win the championship, otherwise they aren't the best.

Absolutely retarded post.

Duke was blown out by the 4th best team in the Big East.

HALF the Elite 8 was Big East teams. It would've been more, but Villanova and Pitt played each other.

Let's rank the teams from the two conferences together:
1)UNC
2)UConn
3)Louisville
4)Villanova
5)Pittsburgh
6)Syracuse
7)Duke
8)Marquette
9)Clemson

Are you really going to argue for the ACC the way they played?

The ACC was well represented with a bunch of teams as well

*- Maryland gets blown out by the clearly superior Memphis, Wake Forest gets blown out by Cleveland State, USC takes BC to the woodshed, Florida State loses to Wisconsin (probably the 5th or 6th best Big 10 team), Clemson loses to Michigan (maybe the 6th or 7th best Big 10 team).




Good job, ACC! One elite team, one good team, and a bunch of mediocrity.

[yisman]

oh I remember everyone saying that Mich. State might have been the weakest 2

nah, that was definitely OU. Michigan State was the second or third best.

You've lost your mind 4th best conference??? Who would you put ahead of the ACC??? The BE that are sitting at home? A conference which had 1/4 of the tourney but didn't make the championship game. Talk about underachievers. Big East = Big 10 football 2006 with OSU and UM. Media driven drivel... Your going to say oh but the BE had a deep run but look at how many teams they fielded.

Just by the sheer numbers you would expect many of those teams to advance. Look at the draws many of those teams had. Look at Syracuse for example, who got to the elite eight playing Stephen F Austin and Az State? Why were they a #3 seed to begin with? Why would 3 BE teams get #1 seeds? That was BS to begin with. All 3 of those teams didn't deserve #1 and an easy road to the finals. We now see that they were given too much props and their seedings were unfair to the rest of the country. Memphis got screwed. Oklahoma got screwed and MSU did as well having to play 2 #1's from the same conference.

It all worked out in the end and the overrated BE got what they deserve. Sitting their asses at home watching someone else bring home the title. BE #1's didn't play anyone until they got to the elite 8 then once they met a good team they lost

The BE had good teams but so does most conferences. The supposedly elite teams got exposed and their asses handed to them.

[yisman]

I ranked the conferences already.

1)Big East
2)Big 12
3)Big Ten
4)Pac-10
5)ACC

they could be considered ahead of the Pac-10. This discussion was gone over and over again. Where have you been?

[yisman]

they had half the Elite 8 but they aren't the best conference? This is so stupid it's comical.

A)Saying LSU could beat anyone this year when they played in the only major conference weaker than the ACC.
Are you going for quantity or quality??? What does weak conference have to do with winning a game? LSU was playing good basketball as evidenced by them beating a good Butler squad. LSU played UNC very tough which everyone expected. UNC gets much more credit than I'm going to give Louisville or Pitt in that round.

B)Saying that the best conference must win the championship, otherwise they aren't the best.
Of course I'm saying that. How the hell can you be the best and you didn't win, what planet are you living on? Planet LOSER

Nova was the best team in that conference. Read my post last month when I predicted that they would be the last BE team standing. The other teams were vastly overrated.

HALF the Elite 8 was Big East teams. It would've been more, but Villanova and Pitt played each other.
Blame the stupid ass selection committee. Half of them had zero chance of winning it all. To put 3 teams number 1, 2 on the number 3 line (RU Fuking kidding me) and 2 on the #6 line is bullchit and was a clear advantage for the Big East. Thankfully they are all sitting at home after that chit.

Let's rank the teams from the two conferences together:
1)UNC
2)UConn
3)Louisville
4)Villanova
5)Pittsburgh
6)Syracuse
7)Duke
8)Marquette
9)Clemson
10 FSU

Are you really going to argue for the ACC the way they played?

Look at the draws?? BE got easy draw's, ACC got much harder ones. I'm not a fan of the ACC but I know bullchit when I see it and just because the Pac10 went undefeated in football bowl games last year didn't mean a thing to me because I saw who they played. Same chit with the BE. Give ANY of the conference the same draws and their teams would have the same results pretty much.

FSU was probably the 5th or 6th best ACC team as well. Clemson??, BC??? Your comparing apples to apples, those losses don't mean anything other than that the Big10 was better than the Big East. Don't think it means it's better than the ACC.

Good job, ACC! One elite team, one good team, and a bunch of mediocrity.

Good job BE, get your entire conference in the dance and EVERYBODY'S sitting at home. Fuking underachievers...

See above...

"Of course I'm saying that. How the hell can you be the best and you didn't win, what planet are you living on?"

Not only don't you know college basketball, you can't even make a decent argument. We're discussing best conference, not best team.

The best conference doesn't always have the title winner.

The Big East was by far and away the best conference and I don't know anyone who would contest that except for you.

If Memphis won it all, would Conference USA have been the best conference this season?
