We'll know for sure when March Madness begins...

Will the Big Ten get 8 or 9 invites and have one team in the Elite 8 while the ACC gets 4 or 5 and has 2 in the Elite 8? I watched the so-called Power 6 conferences this winter and it looks like there is no dominant team. I think the SEC is very athletic but they usually find a way to choke. The Big 12 is deep but didn't the ACC have a winning record vs. them this season? Tech beat Iowa State. Some are saying the Pac-12 will surprise everyone and have 3 or 4 teams in the Sweet 16. UConn is the most impressive team I've watched this season and they are beatable. We'll see if the ACC gets 5 teams in the Big Dance. I hope Pitt can get in because they will cause problems for teams that haven't seen them this year. UNC looks solid. Duke might be an Elite 8 team. Not sold on either Clemson or UVA. If the ACC is eliminated before the Elite 8, I will agree the ACC was down this season. If the ACC has 2 teams in the Elite 8, then the conference was underrated and disrespected by the media.

Missouri beating Pitt on the road is a bad look for the league
