Bracketology and Team Resumes

[RaceToTheTop]

With covid, the NET measurements are going to be a little askew.  Doesn't really take into account the state of the program when you played them or how they were in other games.

This made me laugh.  Bracketology humor

IU moved up 12 spots to 33 in the NET today

Let’s keep moving in that direction! Good opportunity for a quad 2 win.

The computers love IU. What is this sorcery?

Interesting to be 1 spot ahead of Providence with a combined 6-2 quad 1/2 record to our 2-3 record.

Similarly interestingly, The Athletic's bracketology this morning (I know, it's January) has us playing Providence in a 12/5 matchup.

My guess is efficiency is holding them back? They're low in KenPom, too. They've been blown out in their two losses and didn't really feast on their cupcakes (meaning they didn't blow them out by 20+ points. 

Look at Texas Tech at #25, 1-3 in quad 1 and 9-0 in quad 4. Weird.

Yeah a teams overall NET number is not nearly as important as the resume inside.  Committee uses a teams NET number as a sorting tool.    In this case once committee sorted the teams they would see Providence would deserve a better seed based on the resume.

Good.

Even though I'm guessing we're not, we should be the 5 seed in that matchup.

We're not, but it's an improvement from being the 12/12 Dayton game in their last edition.

Even weirder is that 7 of their 10 wins are against teams 300+ NET and their Non conference SOS is 153.   This stuff will work itself out but that’s interesting

It’s like watching the stock ticker after every game.

Where are you pulling noncon SOS from? TTU has a noncon SOS of 355 on KP, oof!

That's kind of divine providence, right...

That's really odd and has to be some type of error no? I'm curious how they calculate noncon SOS now.
