[QUOTE="Cuyahoga Falls Eers_rivals, post: 131645109, member: 1759980"] Upon further review, as usual going where the numbers take me, and using the numbers from March Madness: National rankings of survivors: #3 Baylor, #4 Michigan, #8 Iowa, #11/#12 Kansas, #27/#32 Oklahoma, #37/#41 Maryland (unranked so I gave Terps 1 rank below the lowest ranked team in the 2 polls) Average national ranking of Big 12 survivors: 16.3 Average national ranking of Big 10 survivors: 17.0 Slight advantage to Big 12 at the top. As I said for months, the two conferences are pretty even at the top, but Big 12 has better depth. Average loss by Big 12 teams: 4 points (4 losses by combined 16 points). Average loss by Big 10 teams: 7.8 points (6 losses by combined 47 points, including all 3 overtime games). Confirming my contention for months that Big 12 is better as you go down the list of teams. So I stand by that stance and the March Madness numbers support it. Again, as I’ve said for months, and the March Madness numbers support my conclusion: Big 12 and Big 10 are pretty even at the top, with Big 12 slightly ahead, and Big 12 is much better in depth, with 57% loss to 76% loss for Big 10. In Sweet Sixteen so far: Baylor of Big 12 and no Big 10 team yet. Obviously, Oklahoma, Kansas of the Big 12 and Iowa, Michigan and Maryland in the Big 10 have to win their Monday second round games to reach the Sweet Sixteen. 1 seed Michigan plays 8 seed LSU 2 seed Iowa plays 7 seed Oregon 3 seed Kansas plays 6 seed Southern Cal 8 seed Oklahoma plays 1 seed Gonzaga, the toughest barrier for either conference on Monday 10 seed Maryland plays 2 seed Alabama BIG 12 LOSING GAMES (by total of 16 points; average 4-point loss) (14) Abilene Christian vs. (3) Texas Abilene Christian 53, Texas 52 (11) Syracuse 75, (3) West Virginia 72 (3) Arkansas 68, (6) Texas Tech 66 (12) Oregon State 80, (4) Oklahoma State 70 STILL ALIVE: #3 nationally Baylor, #11/#12 Kansas, #27/#32 Oklahoma (4 of 7 teams lost) Baylor in Sweet Sixteen, Kansas and Oklahoma have to win Monday. BIG 10 LOSING GAMES (by total of 47 points; average 7.8-point loss, 3 in OT) (11) UCLA vs. (11) Michigan State UCLA 86, Michigan State 80 (OT) (15) Oral Roberts vs. (2) Ohio State Oral Roberts 75, Ohio State 72 (OT) (13) North Texas vs. (4) Purdue North Texas 78, Purdue 69 (OT) (8) Chicago Loyola 71, (1) Illinois 58 (1) Baylor 76, (9) Wisconsin 63 (2) Houston 63, (10) Rutgers 60 STILL ALIVE: #8 nationally Iowa, #4 Michigan, unranked Maryland (not in 36/41 with votes in the 2 polls) (6 of 9 teams lost) Need to win 2nd round games Monday to make Sweet Sixteen.
