If the 12 team league existed this year who would win?

[xman]

I'd say Georgetown or Creighton of the 12 rumored to be coming.

[Jet915]

Yeah, I agree, probably Georgetown or Creighton with Marquette as a contender.

[courtjester]

Loyola Ramblers would run wild on the league if they were in.

[FlyerFan]

I wouldn't count out Butler!

[Jet915]

Whoops, you are right, Marquette and Butler would be the other contenders.

[Peter]

Xavier and Marquette are down. This year!a group wouldn't actually be all that strong for NCAA bids. Hopefully that's not a sign of things to come.

[Jet915]

Yeah, this year there would be three locks (Georgetown, Creighton and Butler) w/2-3 bubble teams (Xavier, Marquette) so we would be getting 4-5 bids total I would think which isn't bad and what I would probably expect yearly from a 12 team league.

[courtjester]

I think Saint Louis might be a bubble team as well. Even Dayton is playing well.

Getting 4 out of 12 (33%) would be roughly the same as the Big East most years and better than the A10 or MVC.

Getting 4 out of 12 (33%) would be roughly the same as the Big East most years and better than the A10 or MVC.

Very true.

Hopefully, the teams that get bids will win a few games to build up the inventory in NCAA tourney units. Ultimately, that could be the greatest revenue generator for the league (even better than TV).
