Boeheim: ACC won in tournament, unlike Big Ten


For Jim Boeheim, the only true barometer of a conference's success is its record in the NCAA tournament. Based on that criteria, the longtime Syracuse coach said the Big Ten, which finished 9-9 in the NCAA tournament last year, was inferior to the ACC, which finished 14-5 and sent three teams to the Elite Eight. Last season, the Big Ten secured nine NCAA tournament bids on Selection Sunday but only Michigan and Purdue reached the second weekend. Both teams were eliminated in the Sweet 16, extending the drought of a league that hasn't captured the national championship since 2000. Last year, the ACC had just five bids -- its lowest tally since it sent four teams to the NCAA tournament in 2013 -- but North Carolina and Duke matched up in the Final Four in Mike Krzyzewski's final game and Miami made a surprise run to the Elite Eight.
