Conference winners and tournaments

[edit]

Thirty-one conference seasons concluded with a single-elimination tournament. The teams in each conference that won their regular-season titles were given the number one seed in their respective conference tournaments. Conference tournament winners received an automatic bid to the 2011 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament except for the winner of the Great West Conference tournament, although Great West Tournament champion North Dakota received an automatic bid to the 2011 CollegeInsider.com Tournament.[56] The Ivy League was the only NCAA Division I conference that did not hold a conference tournament, instead sending its regular-season champion to the NCAA tournament.
