CBS: Michigan's NCAA championship loss should feel very familiar to Big Ten fans

[BleedGopher]

per Palm:

Man, it's been rough sledding for the Big Ten since Michigan State won the last national title for the league in 2000 -- with Michigan's 79-62 drubbing at the hands of Villanova in Monday's NCAA championship game simply the latest in a long run. Since the Big Ten last won, the ACC has won seven titles. With Villanova's win tonight, the Big East now has six. The SEC has three titles, but only one belongs to Kentucky.

Duke, North Carolina and Connecticut have three titles each. Florida won back to back in 2006 and 2007, the latter of those over Ohio State. Villanova has now won two of the last three championships.

The Big Ten: zero.

It's hard to say when the next chance will come, but you'd have to say the Big Ten is due. Could be worse though. The Pac-12 hasn't won a title since Arizona's magical run through three No. 1 seeds in 1997.

Need to win it one of these years but having 6 different teams play in the Championship game since 2000 shows the conference has some nice depth in my opinion:

Illinois (2005)
Indiana (2002)
Michigan (2013, 2018)
Michigan State (2009)
Ohio State (2007)
Wisconsin (2015)

During that same time:

ACC: Duke (3: 3 titles); Georgia Tech (1); Maryland (1: 1 title); North Carolina (4: 3 titles)
Big 12: Kansas (3: 1 title)
Big East: Connecticut (2: 2 titles); Louisville (1: 1 title); Syracuse (1: 1 title); Villanova (2: 2 titles)
Pac 10/12: Arizona (1); UCLA (1)
SEC: Florida (2: 2 titles); Kentucky (2: 1 title)
