I disagree completely. This is on the premise that the teams who win their conferences have already proven they are the BEST team in that conference (top 4 record in their conference and then won the conference "tourney"). There is no need to have 2 SEC teams in the final 4 if we have already determined who the best SEC team is. Why have, for example, UF and Bama in the final 4 if they already played each other in the conference final game, and UF won. No reason for Bama to be there
There's no perfect solution, but this gives a potential 9-3 SEC champ the same chance to win a title as a potential 12-0 ACC champ
I don't agree because a three loss Big Ten Champ, with an easy schedule to begin with, doesn't deserve an equal chance as a one loss SEC runner up, or second place division champ. The three loss B1G Champ, even with his easy path to victory, deserves a shot, but not an equal one as a team in a conference that has proven the ability to put more time, effort, and support in to its product.

What happens if the best 2 SEC teams are 9-3? Do you think they are undeserving to be in the game? I mean you are only taking the scenario from 1 angle, in which a shitty B1G champ slides in over a more deserving SEC team. What about when the B1G has 3 very good programs, would you want the SEC to get completely left out of the chance to win a title?
I think the conference semifinals and finals have already determined who the best team is in a conference, and the SEC runner ups already had their shots and didn't get the job done
Edit: I respect the other side, but I think this gets rid of the eye test, where Bama goes over OSU in 2011, or Michigan almost went over UF in 06
