Very proud of our old Southwest Conference brothers on All-Time men's basketball report card

The Tournament has evolved so much over the years. At one point it was just 16 teams and usually only one team from a conference got a bid.

The SEC was penalized for Kentucky being such a powerhouse which resulted in basically anyone else not ever getting to play in the Tournament.

The SWC benefited from parity and no one dominant program.

If you look at these rankings since 1986 (I believe that’s when it expanded) a lot of those old SWC teams don’t have near the accomplishments and virtually 90% of the SEC’s tournament bids aside from Kentucky have been since then.
