| Final 4 appearances since 1990:  ACC-17, Big 10-10, SEC-10, Big 12-8, PAC 10-5, Big East 4.  I don't think we need any more evidence for the superiority of the ACC.  And this from a Big 10 guy (I graduated from Indiana in '79).  What I find the most interesting is how we don't know the players very well anymore.  With the idiots going straight to the pros, or leaving school after a year, there's almost no time to build the hype.  Even Duke loses players early now. |
