Well, that is the nomenclature that they prefer. A regular season championship means nothing to the selection committee - other than the wins you racked up while winning it. If a mid-major or low-major wins their conference championship but does not win the conference tournament, they may be left out of the NCAA tournament, not the other way around. Therefore, KU and OU are at-large, and MU is the Big XII automatic bid.
