Yeah, so much for the Big Ten being the nation' best basketball conference this year. They still were. The NCAAs being used as the be-all end-all measure for conferences is an annual source of annoyance for me. I see your point however, I really believed they'd have two teams in the Final Four further validating the Big Ten as the best. It's been 4 years since a conference had two Final Four teams - and before that it had been another 4 years. It just doesn't happen that much.
