Took a quick glance at the powerful Big Ten conference, specifically the teams that might have a gripe, the 3 NIT teams (if you didn't make the NIT, don't even speak).

Purdue, 10-3, beat Duke (1 - the best non-conf win in the Big Ten), lost at Oklahoma (NIT), at Colorado St (no tourney), at SMU (no tourney), finished sub-.500 in the Big Ten and lost in first round of tournament - not the NCAA resume

Michigan, 9-2, beat NC St (3), lost at Vanderbilt (6), at BU (NIT)

Iowa, 7-4, beat Lousiville (10), lost at Missouri (NIT), at Texas Tech (8), at Iowa St (NIT) at N. Iowa (14)

I am sorry, but where are those quality road wins? Duke is the single one, but Purdue played its own way out of the Big Dance.
