It makes me want to puke when I hear how the Big 10 is trying to field 7-8 in the tournament, when the Bears can blow most of them out with athleticism.

No. Just because the Big Ten doesn't play uptempo and score a ton of points doesn't mean the league is terrible. The Big Ten plays defense.

Their defense only looks good because they are so athletically challenged on the offensive side of the ball. The cream of the crap in the conference got spanked all season long by teams that show any ounce of athleticism. Go baylor, take a spot away from that horrible conference.

You mean Illinois spanking Missouri? Michigan taking UConn to the limit on the road, beating Duke and beating UCLA? Michigan St. crushing Okie State and Kansas and beating Texas?

All people want to remember is Purdue and Michigan St. getting hammered in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge by Duke and UNC. Give me a break.

Duke also hammered Michigan earlier in the year on a neutral court... Duke can lose to anyone when they arent hitting 3s and i don't think they hit any in the game.. that's why michigan won.

Well hell. Purdue and Michigan State weren't hitting their threes when they lost those two games. That's why Duke and UNC won.

How about West Virginia (an average Big East team) going on the road and slaughtering Ohio State and Iowa in their own buildings, although Iowa was on neutral

I'll give you that one, but the Big 10, top to botton is one of the top 3 conferences.

usually almost every year its the ACC and Big East near the top, ACC is still 10-0 in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge in the ten years they have played it, I think that is probably where the Big Ten takes a perception hit whether fair or not

that being said Michigan State is usually a dangerous team in the NCAA Tournament and they have a great track record (multiple Final 4 appearances and national title)

Thank you for giving me results from games in november. I'm sure those mean a lot at this point in time. I would like you to tell me that Minnesota has a chance of beating Louisville at this upcoming tournament.

You are the one that brought up "all season long". Just bring facts, not opinions.

Every year people rag on the Big Ten and they always seem to do well inthe tournament. Defense wins in the postseason and the Big Ten plays that all season.
