Board Game Show… guess the NET

[fatherspider]

First one…
What is the current NET of this resume?
Q1 1-5
Q2 2-1
Q3. 5-0
Q4. 10-0

If anyone has others to post, please do.

 

[Eight Legger]

I'm guessing it's like 65 but really should be about 105.

 

[fatherspider]

Im guessing the suspense is killing everyone. Good guess Eight Legger but way off.
That amazing resume belongs to the #23 Gonzaga Bulldogs. #23 with a Q1+2 record of 2-7.

 

[SFspidur]

Gonzaga is 2–1 in Q2.

 

[fatherspider]

Corrected. Still just 3 Q1-2 wins and sitting at 23.

 

[SFspidur]

Gonzaga’s RPI is 66, three spots behind us. Always interesting to see the differences between NET and RPI.

And yet, there are ahead of us, despite 2 Quad 4 home losses. That said, if the committee was going to evaluate between us and VCU, those two Quad 4 home losses would but us in ahead of VCU, despite them being actually rated higher than us in overall NET.

 

[SpiderDogg]

Yep 2 Q4 losses DQs you for at large. That’s why we’re alive for it and they’re not. Sorry rams

Sorry to say but their resume if they won out might be better than ours even with those 2 Q4s.

They would undoubtedly have a much higher NET than us, but would likely have won A10 reg season title too, have 10 straight wins, including 3 Q1 wins - Dayton x 2, UR.

 

[SpiderRick]

Gotta win them all and probably one in the A10 tournament to be in the hunt for an at-large bid.

So let's win'um all!

 

[fatherspider]

Yes the 2 Q4 losses makes their resume worse but seems to have no effect on ranking.

Ummm That is not a good resume. It should be in the 70’s at least but im guessing 58 because the system is weird.
Found it… wow that resume is number 34 SMU.
2 Q1-2 wins and a Q3 loss??

Yeah just insane …

 

[fatherspider]

Yeah just insane …

Worst part is that this undeserved ranking helps every opponent they play. All will get a quality game with a Q1-2 win and a loss not hurting. Its a chain reaction of crap.

 

[SFspidur]

They moved up 7 spots by blowing out Memphis yesterday.

 

[KE Spider]

Earth to fans. NET rankings are but one of many factors in deciding to extend a bid. We seem overly fixated on a single, perhaps flawed, matric.

Win the next 6 and put NET to rest.

Ok you may say that and it is probably right in bubble teams but if you are ranked 23 in NET even with only 3 Q1-2 wins, you are getting in. So in many cases it is the defining/only tool they use.

 

[kneepadmckinney]

The Athletic had an article basically saying "it is just a tool, but we can get a directional idea of its import". I'm not going to get it exactly right b/c I can't find it quickly, but generally no team with a NET below like 25 has ever been excluded, and no team with a NET above 77 has ever been included. If in the 50s, it's like a 15-20% chance of inclusion historically.

So fatherspider ain't wrong in focusing on the echo chamber effect of the NET, and KE isn't wrong that IRL the Committee will look at more than that.

We have to give the Committee a reason to select us, and being in the Top 4 of A-10 won't cut it. Winning the A10 regular season probably would.

 

[GKiller]

Right kneepad and I’d love to see a deeper breakdown of p6 vs non p6. If the in the 50s net % is accurate it’s probably higher for p6’s but lower for non.

 

[Eight Legger]

It feels like maybe the only chance we have is to win the league AND do so via tiebreaker by winning out. If Dayton were to lose another game or two and we did the same but still won on a tiebreaker at 14-4, for example, our Dayton win would be devalued by their additional losses.

Yes, both of us need to keep winning. I'll be good with us winning out and Dayton losing one more. Winning outright will be key.

I (and the system) need way more info than these stupid meaningless tiers.
