That conference is extremely overrated IMO. Just because the press believes a team is good doesn't make it so. They've gotten a lot of respect for simply losing to each other.

Great sportsmanship by Wichita state for not picking up Frank Mason after clotheslining him

Go ahead and doubt Bill Self and Kansas. This is when they prove you wrong.
The Big12 has 1 team (Kansas) that is typically very good and the rest are pretty average. Occasionally, you will have a several other good teams, but for the most part it's Kansas and then everybody else. The Big12 has definitely had a poor showing in the NCAA Tournament this year.
Getting 7 of 10 teams in was a joke. I may be in the minority here, but I think you should have a winning conference record to get in. Texas and OSU going 8-10 in the Big XII, they should've been left at home. Playing a tough schedule means nothing if you can't win them.
Evansville is the hometown team here, so we know all about them.
