I had a long debate with seble about the prestige formula. He feels that the # of wins, regardless of SOS, is equally important to post-season success.
For instance, in 2011, VCU (27-12) made the Final Four. Utah State (30-3) lost in the 1st round. Murray State (31-2) lost in the 2nd round. seble considers the seasons of VCU, Utah St., and Murray to be equal in prestige
To copy davis' analogy, how many people can name any 30+ win teams that lost in the first weekend?
Each season, the TV commentators rave about Utah State's 2011 record. VCU is barely mentioned. LOL
