No more are the days when, in projecting the best teams in the Mid-American Conference, one could eliminate half the deck before even starting their breakdown.
Month: June 2014
2013-14 SEC Post-Mortem
The SEC had two teams in the Final Four and their teams had a 12-3 record in the NCAA Tournament. But the conference was carried largely by two teams and looks very top-heavy.
2013-14 MAAC Post-Mortem
The always-competitive MAAC had a membership change that was a net positive in the first year of the change. While the same two teams battled for the title as last year and could again next year, there were some other highlights as well.
2013-14 Big West Post-Mortem
The Big West was a four-team race last year. And a very good one at that. UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara, Long Beach State and Hawaii staged a spirited battle for the conference title in a league that refreshingly still decides a true champion through a double round-robin schedule.
2013-14 Conference USA Post-Mortem
Determining who the very best teams in Conference USA were last year is like trying to find out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. Perhaps only Mr. Owl could sort that out in a league that is just way too big because of the chase for football money.
2013-14 Big South Post-Mortem
The Big South had a historic year with who coached its champion as well as postseason success, putting it in a good position beyond this season.
