I think some people here are discounting how hard it is to win on the road in any league. Picking one team and 1 year totally at random, _avier in 06-07 goes 13-3 in conference. That's pretty frickin' good. They went 8-0 at home, 5-3 on the road.

They lost at:
St. Louis (20-13, 8-8)
St. Joe's (18-14, 9-7)
Duquesne (10-19, 6-10)

They won at:
Fordham (18-12, 6-10)
St. Bonny (7-22, 4-12)
GW (23-8, 11-5)
Dayton (19-12, 8-8)
LaSalle (10-20, 3-13)

So basically they beat 1 good team on the road (GW) and that's it. They took care of the bottom dwellers as expected (StB, LaS, Fordham) and picked up a winnable game against Dayton (who I don't believe even made the NIT that year, we weren't very good).

How did Dayton go 8-8 in conference that year? They went 6-2 at home. Plus we won at Temple (6-10) and St. B (4-12).

That's the story of every league, every year, every team. Win them all at home (8), beat the dregs on the road (2-4), go 0.500 against the middle tier (2-3), and maybe get a win against a pretty good team if you're lucky (1). That gives you between 12 and 14 wins and makes you top of your conference.
