How Good Is The Big 12?

Without a deep understanding of all the metrics just watching some of their games it looks like a bunch of tough teams. I'm not convinced the B1G has a clear advantage over their 1-7. Have a feeling at least 2 from that league go far in the Tourney.

I don't know what happens to Oklahoma but I watched a few minutes and this Austin Reaves kid can ball. Played 2 years at Wichita State.

I believe the Big 12 is the best conference followed by the Big 10. I'd put the Big East, followed by the SEC and ACC.

The SEC is stronger at the top, but the Big East has much more depth, which means more to me. DePaul only won 2 games despite having a potential 1st round pick and a preseason all conference player. If you don't bring your A game in the Big East, you might lose.

The more I watch the ACC, the less impressed I am with them.

I think Big 12 is the best league this year, rather than Big 10. But with a lack of non conference games it’s really hard to judge. Aside from Iowa, which played Gonzaga and UNC, it seems like the rest of the B1G teams played only cupcakes out of conference.

The top half of the Big 12 plays good defense. That takes them farther than most.
