Scott, although UCLA did kill Montana, a mediocre team at best, you did neglect
to mention that ALL 4 teams that finished above UCLA in the Pac-10 (USC, 
Washington, Oregon St. & Arizona) LOST in the first round of the NCAA tourney,
where the REAL teams play. The NIT is more or less a consolation tourney.

And you can't call me a West Coast hater since I went to school at UCLA and
Cal. Face it, the Pac-10 just didn't have it this year. As far as the strongest
conferences this year, after Round 2 of the NCAA's you don't have to look very
far to see that both the ACC and Big East still have 4 teams remaining in the
tournament. I'd say it is a toss up between those 2 conferences.
