Remaining OOC opponents:

126. Georgetown
46. Columbia

At #42 Fairfield and neutral vs. #37 Oklahoma State should currently be Q1 wins, though the database only lists us as 1–0 in Q1 for some reason.

Yeah, I don't understand their quads...they have us 1–0 in Q1/Q2/Q3 and 5–0 in Q4. Q4 is correct, but we should be 2–0 in Q1 and 1–0 in Q2 with no Q3 games.

Q1 (1–30 home, 1–50 neutral, 1–75 away)
at Fairfield (42)
vs Oklahoma State (37)

Q2 (31–75 home, 51–100 neutral, 76–135 away)
at Temple (100)

Q4 (161+ home, 201+ neutral, 241+ away)
Morgan St. (307)
Gardner-Webb (321)
W&M (311)
at App State (250)
vs Oakland (255)

This is setting up very nicely. If we beat Georgetown and even split the other 4, we should stay pretty firmly in the top 30 or so. Do better than that and we are looking at a ranking and the chance to go into A-10 play with the chance to play a couple games in the home whites in March.
 
Okay, I found the answer to my question. The women's quads are completely different from the men's and much more stringent for some reason. And it seems like they may shift from year to year based on previous season's results?

Q1: 1–25 home, 1–35 neutral, 1–45 away
Q2: 26–55 home, 36–65 neutral, 46–80 away
Q3: 56–90 home, 66–105 neutral, 81–130 away
Q4: 91+ home, 106+ neutral, 131+ away

Kind of insane to me that a home game against #91 would be a Q4.

Anyway, under that criteria, Fairfield is a Q1, Oklahoma State is a Q2, and Temple is a Q3.

Looking at our opponents results so far, Georgetown & Columbia look to be at about the same level as OK State. These will be very tough games that we really need to win especially given the next 3 games. Obviously, a win against Texas would be amazing. Tennessee and especially Alabama look to have the advantage on us based on scoreboard watching. These will be great wins!
 
Truly bizarre. I guess I get why the ratings are a little different, since there's probably a greater disparity between the top 20-25 teams and everyone else, but still.
Yes, that's what I was thinking, too. There are bigger gaps in the tiers in women's hopes for sure. You will find many cases where a team wins by 40+ only to turn around and lose by 40+ in the very next game. Even within the top 25, it is very common for a 20-25 ranked team to get crushed by a top 10 team. And it is not uncommon for even a top 15 team to get crushed by a top 5 team.
