Well, first off, nobody is voting for conferences, they're voting for
teams.
As for tournament performance, anyone who thinks the Big Ten is a bad
tournament league quit paying attention three years ago. The Big Ten
is 34-21 in the last three years, with five final four teams and one
champion. Two of the 21 losses came at the hands of another Big Ten
team.

I don't really think these coaches that vote have a<BR>
clue. Have you looked at the list of schools these<BR>
coaches are from? Most are small D-1 or mid-majors,<BR>
who seem to always vote based on popularity and past<BR>
performance. St. Joe's #10? Give me a break. The<BR>
Big East shoul have a couple more schools in there and<BR>
the Big Ten is always over rated if you look at their<BR>
post season record as a conference. <BR>
