The Atlantic Sun had a big run in the postseason once again, showing that while the conference doesn’t get a lot of notice during the regular season, its teams can’t be dismissed when March rolls around.
Conference Notes
2013-14 Southland Post-Mortem
Unexpectedly, Stephen F. Austin had a banner year and made national headlines with its play, providing a number of highlights for the Southland Conference in 2013-14.
2013-14 MAC Post-Mortem
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.
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.
2013-14 WAC Post-Mortem
The ever-changing WAC is hanging on, with a few positives in 2013-14 led by its top program and the surprise regular season champion.
2013-14 ACC Post-Mortem
The ACC wasn’t exactly the powerhouse conference many thought it would be in 2013-14. Will that be the case when expectations rise further next year?
