[QUOTE="Deleted member 747903, post: 1612835"] Let's relax a bit. B10 teams have had unbelievably tough tourney matchups up to this point. Let's break it down: 1. ILL loses to Loyola (top ten Kenpom) 2. Iowa loses (most likely) to Oregon (pac 12 reg season winner) 3. Purdue loses to UNT (team with crazy amount of tourney experience) 4. OSU loses to ORU (made it to sweet sixteen and is legit) 5. Wiconsin loses to Baylor (might win whole tourney) Who has the Pac12 played? USC beat Drake who isn't very good and Colorado beat Georgetown who isn't very good. UCLA caught a break playing arguably the worst 6 seed. I'll give Oregon State credit because they are playing way way way above their weight class. Tourney is all about matchups. B10 teams got the short end of the stick this year on matchups but I'd take our conference this year over any other. [/QUOTE]
