Power Conference Basketball Records Vs Each Other, 2024-2025 *Updated Through Games Played 12/22
Including the Mountain West Plus Gonzaga and Memphis (and this week I added games versus Dayton)
I wouldn’t be surprised if I have made a few mistakes here. I track this every morning but there are so many games I’m not confident it’s 100% accurate despite every effort at being diligent. Nevertheless, it’s at minimum close enough to provide insight into the relative strength of each Conference thus far. I don’t know if including the Mountain West improves the sample size or dilutes it. I’ll let you decide there. But that league has received ten Tourney bids the last two years so at least on the top end, they warrant inclusion.
This is the second year I have tracked this and recognizing which mid-Majors to include always gives me pause. Gonzaga is a given so long as Mark Few is coaching. Generally speaking Memphis is going to sponsor a nationally relevant team. Beyond that it’s touch and go. Last year FAU was another team to be aware of but with Dusty May going to Michigan those days are over. I am including Dayton in this retroactively as they’ve played a big boy schedule and have competed more than credibly. I should have done it immediately after their performance in Maui as my purpose here is to highlight conference performance in high leverage games. So the number changes from last week won’t add up exactly. Putting in the MWC looks like a mistake in hindsight. It’s not very many games and the league is very bad after about team 4. They’ll be lucky to get three bids this year never mind six.
Last week Florida beat NorthCarolina. SCJr beat Clemson. Oklahoma beat Michigan. MissSt won at Memphis. Auburn beat Purdue. Only weak sister of the league, Kensucky, losing to OhioSt and Missouri choking at home to Illinois prevented a perfect week for the SEC. Here’s a good way to sum up things for the league’s OOC performance—they went a collective 5-2 last week which actually brought their winning percentage DOWN.
Now that football is over (for Tennessee that is) I’ll have a weekly Bracketology post each Monday afternoon. Which is perfect timing as this non conference thing has only 10 or so days left with not too many more matchups. Until then here is a very crude and premature look at the prospective Field going only by current NET.
SEC—14 bids (Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, Alabama, MissSt, Kentucky, Georgia, TexasA&M, OleMiss, Texas, Vanderbilt, Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas)
B1G—10 bids (Maryland, Illinois, Oregon, UCLA, OhioSt, MichiganSt, Michigan, PennSt, Purdue, Wisconsin)
BigXII—9 bids (Houston, IowaSt, Kansas, TexasTech, Cincinnati, Baylor, Arizona, WestVA, BYU)
ACC—5 bids (Duke, Pitt, SMU, NorthCarolina, Clemson)
BigEast—3 bids (Marquette, UConn, StJohn’s)
WCC—2 bids (Gonzaga, OregonSt)
MWC—2 bids (UtahSt, SanDiegoSt)
A-10—1 bid (Dayton)
American—1 bid (Memphis)
21 Certain One Bid Leagues—(CUSA, MVC, BigWest, Ivy, WAC, Southern, Coastal, BigSky, BigSouth, MAC, Summit, SunBelt, ASun, Horizon, SLC, AmEast, Patriot. MAAC, OVC, NEC, SWAC)
First the W-L records by league in order of prowess then each conferences results team by team including current KenPom through this morning. It’s important to note that this doesn’t capture the entire OOC story as there have been the requisite annual Q4 losses by the Power teams for example.
