B1G overrated?

[damnfinn]

Purdue, MSU both lose to lower seeds. Iowa has to battle in overtime, Maryland just barely wins, now Wisc. losing to a lower seed. Seriously doubt any B1G makes it to the sweet 16

Indiana is good. Tough draw with Kentucky though

Big 12 looked over ranked in tourny last year. Msu got out worked and purdue had an unexpecting late game collapse.

Think its possilbe maryland gets the furthest. Indiana got an unfair seeding, they shoud have had isus 4 seed.

Too early to say but conferences should be ranked based on if they get a elite 8/ final four team, not how many round 1 upsets they have.

No. We got a 2 seed three 5 seeds two 7 seeds and an 11 seed. So the committee never thought the Big 10 was good. We are currently 5-2. And based on seeds only 1 team was supposed to make the Sweet 16...and Elite 8. None of the other 6 were expected to make it out of the 1st weekend.

Edit - I had Purdue in the Sweet 16 and MSU in the Elite 8. That's it.

Not at all. With all the first round upsets the B1G did pretty well. Pac12 and Big12 completely showed their pretender colors though.

no one thought the big ten was that good... actually record wise doing well.
