[QUOTE="Cuyahoga Falls Eers_rivals, post: 131655716, member: 1759980"] No intelligent person thinks that the West Coast Conference is equal or superior to the Big 12 or Big 10. Only Gonzaga is, and by only 5 points when it played WVU. Because the team at the top wins March Madness doesn't mean the entire conference is deeper than conferences that did not win it that year. Even Gonzaga would have trouble going undefeated if it played a Big 12 conference schedule (every team twice, including WVU which would get TWO shots at knocking off the fabulous Zags). So would Houston, even if it beats Baylor in the Final Four! Remember, WVU of the Big 12 is the ONLY team in America to almost beat Gonzaga (ahead with 6 minutes to go, 1 down with minutes left, lost by 5) and Baylor (went into OT before losing). And yet WVU finished tied for 3rd in the Big 12 because the Big 12 is tougher than playing Gonzaga once and Baylor once (COVID killed the 2nd meeting)! Case closed. Big 12 is awesome from top to bottom. Well, except for Iowa State this season which lost EVERY game in the Big 12. Iowa State should have played in C-USA instead.
