NET Rankings

On another note, the 10/11/12 lines are a lot more desirable than the 8/9 lines. Right now Bracket Matrix has St. John's as a 10 seed, and it seems silly that I rather they not move up into the 8/9 lines. This is of course assuming we don't play in Dayton as an 11/12 seed.

Maybe the NCAA should just expand the Dayton games to includes all the 10/11/12 lines? That way they'd add a bunch more teams, while at the same time adding a major incentive for teams to finish as 9 seeds or better.

They're 1 of 12 teams with 5 Q1 wins (by NET). In terms of bubble status...they're the only one ESPN Bubble watch doesn't have as a "Lock" or "Should be in."

Thanks, so you're saying out of the entire NCAA, only 12 teams have 5 Q1 wins? Does that also include more than 5 Q1 wins?

Also, which site are you using to look that up? Is there a list somewhere? Thanks.

That includes teams with more. Remember that it can be fairly fluid though, with teams having opponents they've already beaten moving in and out of Q1 status by the day (and there are quite a few teams at 4 right now).

I pulled it from Warren Nolan, which has a NET nitty gritty report that includes records against each quadrant. I just pasted it into excel so I could resort by Q1 wins.

I think it's funny- but a team that I think is really important to the Big East right now is Georgetown....

They are #72 today in the NET.. Really big that they remain in the top 75.... that would give Marquette(ok, maybe for them not that big of a deal), St John's, and Creighton Q1 wins- as those 3 beat the Hoyas at Georgetown... That's HUGE especially for Creighton right now IMO, given they only have Clemson as another Q1 win right now in 10 tries.

So like a game with Butler @ Georgetown tomorrow- it's not obvious that the best thing for the league is a Butler win.....

Good stuff, thanks!

saw this from AAC board but feel like it's applicable here as well... With the sweet 16 preview tomorrow afternoon....

This is the 3rd year for the preview. 28 of the 32 teams in the prior two years actually got a 4 seed or better in the real bracket. Six of the eight “preview 1 seeds” got real 1 seeds.
