There is a general perception that P5 conferences are filled with great programs. The fact is that there are usually not more than 4 teams in any conference that are top 15 and that it's usually 2. The conference games in Jan & Feb include only 2 or 3 games that replicate the final four. The rest are no better than games against good mid-majors.  The fact that Colorado can beat Stanford is due to Stanford playing a crappy game, not because Colorado is any good.   
  How many games will Maryland play in-conference that rise to the level of the 3 above games?  Who exactly is NCSt going to face in the ACC as good as S Car? The only conference that can brag is the PAC12 and even for them it has been a recent development. Stanford has dominated the PAC12 for decades.

Sure, the BE needs to get better. It irks me that a lot of BE teams have no problem fielding an elite men's program.  It's simply a matter of will.
