to me, what's interesting is if you add in the AAC, A10, and WCC. To make it the 9 multi-bid conferences projected right now....
If you do that, the Big East is #1.
Big East 30-18 .625 48 games/10 teams 4.8 games per team
Big 12 23-14 .622 37 games/10 teams 3.7 games per team
ACC 33-24 .579 57 games/15 teams 3.8 games per team
Big Ten 33-32 .508 65 games/14 teams 4.6 games per team
Pac 12 21-22 .488 43 games/12 teams 3.6 games per team
SEC 21-23 .477 44 games/14 teams 3.1 games per team
AAC 17-23 .425 40 games/11 teams 3.4 games per team
WCC 8-12 .400 20 games/10 teams 2.0 games per team
A10 15-33 .313 48 games/14 teams 3.4 games per team
so not only is Big East the best conference, but also has had the most games against the top conferences in the country. The Big East really shows themselves to be the best conference IMO right now because of not just the "p6" but also, all of the multi-bid conferences. I mean, Big 12 is only 5-4 vs the AAC, A10, and WCC right now. Big East is 10-2.
The other thing that IMO is impressive is that the Big East has had right now 97 OOC games, and 48 of them(or almost half) have been against the top 9 conferences. And of the remaining OOC schedule, got at least 13 of 28 games left vs the major conferences. So that would be at least 61 of 128 games(DePaul in tourney still so 1 opponent unknown). I'll venture a guess that no other conference will wind up coming close to that.
