At the beginning of the tournament, the Big East and the Atlantic Ten were all conferences to watch. The WCC and the Pac 10 were poorly regarded (even by this site). So far in the tournament, of the 8 teams from the Big East, we are left with only three teams. The A-10 is left with 1 of their three remaining teams after Richmond and Temple were upset. Meanwhile, bot the Pac-10 and WCC are 6-0 in the Dance. So, uh, our bad.
The only thing assuring that an A-10/Big East team will remain at the end of this round is the fact that Xavier is playing Pitt. Meanwhile, Missouri could be West Virginia and Gonzaga could top Syracuse. In fact, the way things are going… Gonzaga WILL beat Syracuse. I’m not one to ignore trends.
