And is still pointless, the BE was the best conference last year, just cause one of their teams couldn't beat the NBA team (they had 3 first rounders last year RETURN TO SCHOOL, also have 2 more that would be this year if they declared) so can you blame the BE conference for not beating them.
Also a team that loses to BC at home when they are your best team isn't good at all, who was the worst loss suffered by an elite BE team? Georgetown? they beat memphis so they were pretty good too.
Sorry NYJUNC, but the BE was better... maybe the ACC had one better team but as a whole the BE was better.

That's not the point. All these "big" Big East fans were yapping all year about hopw great they were then they disappeared when the BE teams lost. The BE still had a great yera but people were acting like it was 1985 and it wasn't close. 2 weeks ago BE fans were talking about getting 4 teams in the FF, they got half that(w/ 3 #1 seeds) and they didn't get a single team to the title game and no BE fan had anything to say about it.
At the end of the day all I care about is UNC and I'd rather have the ACC fall on their face and the Heels win it all than the opposite BUT the BE fans talk so much trash all the time as if their conf has done anything in the last 20+ years then they actually have success and talk trash only to run and hide when adversity hits.
So Carolina losing to a Tourney team at home is a big deal(that same team went undefeated against BE teams) but carolina smashing the final BE team standing and smashing the team that just beat 2 of the top 3 BE teams isn't a big deal? Let's get real. teams will have bad days but I'm not sure anyone has had the Tourney run the Heels just had, every game was won by AT LEAST 12 points and outside fo the LSU game all the other scores were closer than the games were as teams scored some points in garbage time to make it look closer than it was.
I agree the BE had a better Tourney and that weighs more heavily than the reg season so they get the edge overall BUT another title-less year and another year w/o a team even in the title game.
For those scoring at home:
1980-2009:
Final Fours
ACC: 28
BE: 15
Title Game Apps
ACC: 14
BE: 9
National Titles
ACC: 9
BE: 5
Years w/ Multiple FF teams
ACC: 5
BE: 3
Longest FF streaks
ACC: 8('88-'94)
BE: 2('84-'85 & '03-'04)
Of the 30 FF's played from 1980-2009 there has been at least 1 ACC in 23 of them while there has been at least BE team in 11 of them.
The BE was the bets this past year but people act like they are consistently great and have been for a long time. it's not even a competition w/ the ACC, the BE is so far behind in the rear view mirror it's not even debateable.
Congratulations, you just proved something that not a god damn person in this thread was arguing about.
I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.
Ah, give me something clever to say here.
I was just updating the overall #s for those confused into thinking the BE historically is anywhere near the ACC.
I proved what I was trying to prove and that was the BE fans disappearing after they lost. I can't stand when supposed fans will talk trash when their team(s) play well but disappear when they lose.
