My guess is smashing bad teams early on

This is probably a big part. Back when Kenpoms blog was free and frequent he used to complain about this a lot. At times he played around with different caps on margin of victory, but he ultimately decided it didn’t make the predictability better and discarded it.    
 

The bad teams are not compatible enough to give a good statistical reading for the better teams even when accounting for 30 pt win margins.

Creighton up 4 at Xavier with 8 min to go

Marquette up 4 on UConn with 8 min to go 

Bama up 1 at Arkansas with 14 min to go. All high level games.    

[Uspshoosier 51,012]

Baylor/West Virginia tied as well with 10 min to go

Houston only up 1 at half against South Florida 

[Uspshoosier 51,012]

6-0 run for UConn to cut it to 3 and then Marquette buries a 3.

Both those teams playing hard 

[Uspshoosier 51,012]

Marquette and Xavier with big home wins 

Bama with some big time shots up 8 with 3:40 to go 

these teams have  bench players that would start on every B1G team

Bama/Ark and UT/TCU just look like they’re playing with a different level of athletes than most Big Ten teams.

They are. It’s night and day.    Bama/Ark has bench players that would start on every B1G team

UCF up 101-100 in 2OT on Memphis with 1 min to go 

[Uspshoosier 51,012]

FAU/FIU in OT 

[rcbowla 7,651]

TCU up 8 on TX right now. With how tonight has gone I fully expect TX to end up winning by 7 and crapping on the only good sports thing I've got going right now.
