Steele sees the conference as somewhat of. Four Big 12 teams make the Top 25 on his list, with the highest being ranked No. I think the new Big 12 could have a year or two where it really is the best conference in the nation. Preseason polls are beginning to come out from college football experts and Phil Steele, perhaps the most well-known season preview source, has released his Preseason Top 40. But their conference play is hard to quantify yet. Like, the ACC was absolutely stacked in 2019 with 3 #1 seeds, including the National Champs. The Mountaineers continue to get votes in the AP Top 25 and the Coaches Poll. If you stack up the top of the conferences, each has 1-2 National Title threats most years and then another 4-5 teams with legit postseason chops. Kansas is a frequent Final Four contender and Baylor of course is the defending National Champs. The new Big 12 will have Kansas, Baylor, Houston, West Virginia, Cincinnati, and Texas Tech that are consistent NCAAT teams. Three of those teams won 3 of the past 6 National Titles. Less than six weeks after Texas and Oklahoma sent shockwaves through college sports by jumping to the SEC, the Big 12 has. Again, that's another group of 7 tourney teams, most years with 1-2 National Title contenders. Conference realignment moves are coming in fast and furious. The ACC has Duke, North Carolina, Virginia, Florida State, Syracuse, Louisville, and Virginia Tech.
The B1G will have Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Illinois, Wisconsin, Maryland, and Iowa, all consistent NCAAT teams with usually a couple of Final Four contenders if not National Title caliber teams. Kentucky's usually a National Title contender and then at least another 2 to 3 of those other teams are going to be Final Four contenders each season.
Those teams are all consistent NCAA Tournament teams most seasons. The SEC will have Kentucky, Florida, Texas, Alabama, Auburn, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, and LSU. Team Big 12 Record Big 12 Winning Overall Record Overall Winning Big 12 Regular Season Championships Big 12 Tournament Record Big 12 Tournament Championships Baylor: 186-230. Best college basketball conference in the nation? I doubt that will be the case most years.Ī very good college basketball conference? Yes.ĮDIT: This is getting downvotes, so let me explain my thinking.
