Not a good look for the conference. I am on record speculating that the conference is deep with a lot of good teams but is weak in the top half. If CO loses or struggles, well, that would confirm that suspicion. I hope my suspicion is wrong.
Well, Colorado just destroyed Middle Tennessee, a team from a small conference which has some good wins (Louisville) and a high NET rating (28). It's hard to extrapolate the strength of a conference from the first round. Seeing which teams win two games and get to the Sweet Sixteen will be a better gauge.
