OU is most likely a bottom third team in the SEC. Playing them in what will be a home environment, it should be a game we expect to win.

It’s Nebraska basketball, we’re a perennial bottom half finisher in a way worse conference..

Way worse? Really? The B1G is perennially one of the top 2 conferences and lately has probably been the best most consistently.

Yes way worse, a big 10 team hasn’t won a national championship in a quarter century.

I don’t have an explanation but the Big 10 consistently puts a lot of teams in the tourney that don’t go on deep runs or win the championship. I hate the SEC, but they’re definitely the strongest conference by a ways. They sent 14 teams in 24 & won the title last year. The ACC was also better than the big 10 until NIL came, cause all the schools are poor. The ACC still has the most championships in the past decade.

Wait, so had Butler won in 2010 & 2011, that makes the Horizon League a legit conference back then!?

This argument is beyond tiresome.

They dont go on deep runs cause b1g refs coddle them all year and they dont know how to play when they arent in free throws the whole 2H.

The ACC doesnt have those championships. They have Duke and UNC. The rest are all trash.

There is no league that has the depth the B1G has. You can't sit there and use success in the tournament as your justification for this. Great teams regularly lose games they shouldn't in the dance. Thats why its the most exciting three weekends in sports. Why the hard on for SEC, I guess idk. But its misguided.

Why the hard on for SEC

He's bought in to the media hype. And it's going to get worse now that Disney won the rights to the NCAA tournament. Just like football, they'll promote to protect their investment.

Kentucky & Florida, that's the list of SEC teams to win a national title since a B1G (Sparty) last won one.

ACC - UNC (3), Duke (3), UVA (1), Maryland (1) & Louisville (1)
Big East - UCONN (5*), Nova (2) & Syracuse (1)
B12 - Kansas (2) & Baylor (1)
SEC - UK (1), Florida (3)
B1G - Michigan State (1)

* UCONN won one as a member of the AAC.

I may be missing one, not sure.
