The other non-BCS leagues to win a game in each of the last three years are the Atlantic 10, Horizon and West Coast Conferences. The ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-10/12 and SEC are the BCS-level conferences that have won at least one game in each of the past three years.The OVC is attempting to win a NCAA Tournament game for the fourth-straight year for the first time in league history.OVC teams are 23-63 all-time in the NCAA Tournament.
