Another reason why the RPI is a garbage metric. The Big Twelve ha been overrated all season long, and the Selection committee confirmed that yesterday. 4th best league in the country sounds about right, behind the ACC, Big Ten, and Big East, all of whom got more bids than the Big 12.

I think the "First 4 out" thing is more of a Joe Lunardi thing than an official NCAA thing.
You got your ticket for the first game of another potential national title run?
They've been stating that since the B1G tournament.
They also treated Roy Deyvn Marble this way on his senior year.
Weak troll attempt even for you
You realize the Big 10 actually has 14 teams, and the Big 12 has 10 teams ???
I'm guessing you're a fan of buffets because you like quantity over quality. Easy break down of how your statement is stupid.
ACC = 71% of teams made the tournament, average seed 4.9
This is a $100 a person buffet, the food is good, the crowd is good, plus you get all you can eat lobster tails.
Big 12 = 60% of teams made the tournament, average seed 5.6
This is a steak house, fewer options on the menu but the options are all good, bonus points, this is classy enough to where they dont have to have a sign reminding guests that shirt and shoes are required.
Big East = 70% of teams made the tournament, average seed 7.4
This is Appleby's... sure there are fewer options and the cheaper they get the worst they end up being... but hey Karaoke!
Big Ten = 50% of teams made tournament, average seed 6.7
This is the buffet at an Iowa casino. Sure, it's convenient and the food is decent, but then you look around and take note of the number of white trash hill billies around you with food falling out of their mouths as they eat.

It's an official thing. The first 4 out are given 1 seeds in the NIT. Just a perk given to the prettiest ugly girls who didn't get an invite to prom.
I got another metric for ya, in Sagarin the Hoks are rated 2 spots lower than 11-22 Texas.
Your thoughts?
Your thoughts?
Yeah, NCAA took over the Nobody Interested Tournament and run their experiments with it. I think this may cause Franny to short circuit. Have one of their odd rules trip and he will grab a table and go all WWE on an official.
Bold statement to say all that Iowa has to do is win one game in the B1G Tourney. That is like saying all ISU has to do in football is beat Oklahoma @ Norman.
Hundreds of pages were about how a player you had named Gazelle was as good as Monte Morris.
Put another way, March 9-11, 2017 Prohm won more conference tournament games than Fran has won in 7 years.
