Thank you Auburn Tigers! Big East record of 3 Final Four teams in one year lives for another year. ACC can only have a maximum of 2 in the Final Four. Same with the Big 10.

My best friend is a Pitt fan, and he got really happy when I showed him this post.

Not surprised. Going from being a relative program in the greatest conference in history to a complete afterthought in a top-heavy but not as great ACC's gotta suck for their bball fans.

Awesome, i always keep track of this too!

Also, whenever some conference does match us from 1985, remind everyone that we did it with a 9 team conference. ACC with 15 would make it a different achievement.

Great points! Would be amazing to see the current BE get multiple members to the FF one year, especially if it was schools not named Villanova. (no offense to our Nova brethren!)
