What an absolutely horrific system. Imo it is ruining cbb. This has been the most uninteresting season on memory. Too many NET ranking inconsistencies to point out, and each of them causes the system to be worthless. Teams with 12-13 losses in top NET and because of that they are guaranteed to dance. Think about that… every one of the teams that beat WV (13 losses- 13 teams) got a quad 1 win, and hence each of those teams NET climbs much higher. Obviously it wasnt too hard to beat WV this year, or Iowa St, Ark and a bunch of others. Mediocre teams only playing mediocre teams home/home proves nothing. They get ranked high early because of pre-season predictions and a 11 game OOC where the big teams schedule each other. And after that, the rankings are almost set if a P6 team wins 50% of conference games. Its a disaster really.
Makes for very little drama and too many teams getting in having poor seasons.
