Re: Games of Interest - 2023-2024 MBB

I do not get all the excitement for the Big East only getting 3 teams in. This is not good in my opinion for the A10 or any conference that does not sponsor football. To be consistent, I think it is ridiculous to come up with a NET that means nothing. I said this last year when VCU had no shot at a...

Re: Games of Interest - 2023-2024 MBB

The NET rankings are used to determine the breakdown of quad games. The final NET rank for a particular team is however mainly only used to EXCLUDE non power conference teams. Power conference teams with bad/high NET rankings regularly get selected every year. That rarely happens with teams outside...
