The SEC had the most recent 2x Wade Trophy winner and a back-to-back champion. The aforementioned player did not play for that back-to-back championship team.

What if we judge by the pinnacle of the sport?
NCAA Final Fours: Auburn has 3 appearances, Georgia has 6, Tennessee has 97, LSU has 5.
Alabama, Arkansas and Vanderbilt have all been in the 90s.
Florida under Ross, Ole Miss under Chancellor were considered great programs nationally long before Notre Dame and Connecticut were winning championships.
I say 'queens' just because the SEC has ruled the roost going back to the 80s - the first modern BCS conference to really invest in women's hoops.
For me, this season proves that overall dominance in the sport. No one has really passed the SEC by - yet - in terms of post-season success.
Yes, the Big East gets props for two national champions (Georgia, Auburn have lost national championships to Tennessee, mind you) but the Big East has always had a lousy national cellar dweller like Seton Hall or Providence.

Sorry, despite their sorry ass showings on both the men's and women's sides this year, I still like the Big East better. |
That's great that you LIKE the Big East better, but SEC has long been the queens of the women's college game. The 2010 tourney solidifies it. |
Looks like that was premature.

They're still far ahead of the BEast. UConn and the weak sisters are now 1-5 against other BCS teams in the tournament.
