The Big Ten earned a conference-best eight bids into the 2019 NCAA Tournament – edging out the seven spots earned by both the ACC and SEC – but the league remains on the hunt for its first national title since Michigan State turned the trick beating Florida way back in 2000.
Despite the lack of a national crown since in nearly two decades, the conference is typically fairly deep, putting at least six teams into the field in seven of the last eight years.
Over the last seven years, the league has also tallied six Final Four appearances including three national runner up finishes.
