The mighty Big East doesn't get a team into the championship. I really think Uconn got ridiculously lucky with their path to the Final Four. I remember looking at the bracket and trying to pick them to lose, but I just couldn't. There was NOTHING there. Meanwhile, the east was loaded with UNC, OU, Arizona State, Syracuse, etc. All of which I would have had beating Uconn.
At least we can stop hearing the ridiculous assertions that the Big East was better this year than in 85.
