you can't tell me that their win over caroina isn't better than anything that anyone did in the big 12 this year and their wins over carolina / duke at home looks better than louisville splitting with conn and pitt at home

I think the Big 12 sucks and have been saying so all year. Even on my brackets that don't give bonus points for upsets I am taking North Dakota State over Kansas. I saw Cornell play Siena and they are truly pathetic so Missouri will get one win but they won't get past Marquette even down a man. I'd have had no problem with Wake getting a 3 but if they want to guarantee themselves a 3 while going 11-5 in conference they better start scheduling more than one game they can possibly lose in the entire non-conference schedule. I have no sympathy for power conference teams that schedule cupcakes in the nonconference and then get seeded poorly. Syracuse was rewarded this year with a 3 for finally scheduling some legitimate non-conference opponents (including Kansas in KC and at Memphis) after years of getting seeded low due to the cupcake non-conference schedule.
