I thought it might be good to start a BE thread for this year.
Last year’s BE was pretty fantastic with almost half the league getting consistently into the top 25 all season long. In addition to winning, the national championship, the BE had by far the best record in the NCAA tournament.
Surprisingly, the team that was picked to finish 9th in the league not only won the BE regular season but also won the BET. Then, the team that finished in a tie for 4th won the NC. Finally, this all happened in a year where the strongest team in the league for the last 10 years and a blue blood, had a down year.
This upcoming season looks every bit as strong with the top 3 teams frequently getting mentions as top 10 schools.
Now that the NBA draft deadline has passed, rosters are close to complete. It looks to be another great year for the league. I am grateful that CU, my double alma mater, is in this league.
