Big Ten had Alabama and UCLA so far. Big East Baylor is best team they played and Creighton playing well.

Based on their seeds they should
Plus I truly believe most of these BE teams would struggle in B1G

This is the thing everyone misses.

Sweet 16 is "supposed" to be the #1 through #4 seeds.

Doesn't matter how many teams a conference gets - if all those seeds are below #6 (to be generous).

PSU, MSU, NW, Ill , MD and Iowa aren't supposed to make it to next weekend.

Only Purdue and Indiana should have been expected.
And even a #4 isn't a guarantee. 4v5 is basically even teams from seeding.

So far MSU makes up for Purdue. And Indiana is still out there.

Exactly UCONN has had easy path to sweet 16.
Not only did they get St Mary's, but one of St Mary's top 3 scorers got hurt and missed most of the game.
Credit to Uconn, they played well, but weak opponent and easy path
Significant amount of luck involved in NCAA tournament

MSU - They stay in front of the ball, get over screens, defend the passing lanes and block out, and at the end they're an extension of Izzo's brain on the court. The guy is a great coach.

Yes indeed and Izzo recruits really good players who play really hard.
