The Big East had 3 teams in the Final Four in 1985: Georgetown, Villanova and St. John's.
No. All final four teams have been from different conferences, but not all 4.
Any given team will play every opposite conference team twice, and then they play ten in-conference teams four times (included in those ten is every team in that teams division) then then play the remaining four teams three times,(two from eachof the in-conference other division teams reamaining)
The Big East had 3 teams in the Final Four in 1959. California def. West Virginia (Big East) in the championship...Louisville (Big East) and Cincinnati (Big East) lost in the Final Four. (I don't know if those teams were in the Big East back in 1959, but they are currently)
The "Final Four" are the four teams that win the regional championships in the NCAA basketball tournament, thus becoming the final four teams in the tournament.
The four teams in the final four (in 2008) come from Memphis, California, North Carolina, and Kansas.
Four teams per division
The Final Four are the last standing teams of March Madness in either NBA or NCAA basketball. There are two final games involving the Final Four, two games involving two of the Final Four teams. The two teams that win each of the Final Four games move on to the National Championship, the final game of the season (for NCAA).
16 teams total make the NBA playoffs, 8 teams from the Western Conference and 8 teams from the Eastern Conference. The teams with the eight best records in each conference will play in the playoffs. Division leaders are placed within the top four, and the next best record is also in the top four.
The NBA has a total of four rounds (quarterfinal, semifinal, conference final, THE finals) in the playoffs, for each conference (East and West). That means a total of 16 teams (8 in each conference) will be determined by their regular season records to participate in the playoffs. Well after the quarter final and semifinal rounds in the playoffs. 2 teams in each conference play against each other in the conference final or 3rd; the first team to get 4 victories gets to play in the championship round ( 1 team from each conference plays against each other) and the similar guidlines apply to determine the Championship winner.
The SEC has a total of 6. Four more than any other conference.
In 2012, the Big East received bids for 11 of its schools-- the most ever for any conference. The only one of the 11 that made it to the Final Four was Louisville, a #4 seed.
