I get he is undefeated at 149 but he will still be behind the 3 B1Gs guys on quality wins, coaches ranking, and RPI.   The B1G runner up will probably get higher quality wins at the B1G tournament than he will get winning the B12 tourney.

He will have winning% and higher place at the conference, which might put him above the B1G 3rd place finisher. 

The B1G runner-up  could have to beat D'Emilo/Webster and one of the the other 3 to make the finals.   I don't see the eye test of beating Realbuto justify jumping the B1G runner-up.

 

As far as quality wins go, Johnson could gain quite a few at B12s as well.  Writing him off because he is in the B12 isn't really that valid. 

Right now it looks like the B12 is sitting at ~7 AQ and the B1G at ~8 AQ and the determination for Quality Win is a win over someone earning the conference an AQ.

Mind you, the B1G does have more Top 4 ranked gents, they just don't have more Top 30 ranked gents, which is the approximate criteria.

I think that is where the coaches ability to slightly shift a seed would probably come into play. I would be shocked if they allowed all of them to be on one side.

They have let the B1G guys be on one side many times without adjusting.

3 ranked in the top 4? I could be wrong, but I can't think of any instances.
