Im still trying to figure out NET.

Iowa just won 5 straight ( 5-0 in Q1/2) and they litetally only moved up 6 spots in that span . I cant imagine there are 20 teams with more than 6 Q1 wins and 9 Q1/2 wins

Yet a team like Arizona is top 10 in NET.

Is mov that big a factor? Maybe @ericd7633 xan help a brother out here?

There just isn't as much of a reward for winning games at home, despite the competition being tough. It doesn't really help your adjusted winning %, as it's simply staying status quo. The TVI score is essentially what the old RPI used to be, if I'm trying to understand it correctly. Iowa's RPI is currently at 40 mostly due to the OOC SoS, and their OOC performance in general. It wasn't a bad OOC by any means, but the wins they have against Cuse, ISU, and Texas Tech are all much more highly rated in the NET than RPI. And then that's where efficiency comes into play. Iowa's not great defensively, but overall still sit at 14th in KenPom.

Overall the thing I like about the NET is that it's a ranking system, but your ranking overall won't determine whether you make the tournament or your seeding. For example the Gophers finished last year at 61 in the NET and NC State finished 33rd. Gophers made it, NC State didn't.

As for Zona, they have great metrics. But based on how the selection committee seeded last year, that alone won't align with where you'll be seeded. Seton Hall was 60th in KenPom and Texas was around 30th entering and didn't make it. Zona is looking at a 5/6 seed if it started today IMO.

I don't think it's as simplistic as this:

RPI - 40
KenPom - 14
Avg = 27.

Winning % t40th
Scoring margin t50th
Adj winning % really no way to quantify, but Iowa does have road wins at ISU, at Cuse on neutral court wins over TTU and Cincy, along with winning at NW. That 5-4 record road/neutral is great considering the competition level.

My guess is Iowa is a little higher in TVI than the RPI(meaning like 34th), which would lower the first score some. The first two are weighted more than the other 3 are. @rmilia1

Thanks! Its just ineteresting to me to see team with only 3/4 Q1/2 wins and 0-2 road or neutral wins being ranked ahead of Iowa. Purely based on wins and losses i wouldnt think there are even 10 teams with a better combo of quality and quantity than Iowa. Its an intriguing system

They took the "useful" option away again? Well, I was going to rate this as useful. :)

The thing helping Zona is an SoS of 4 which helps their TVI(despite not having great wins) and they are 12 in KenPom(which I'm using at efficiency). Plus they are 8th in MOV and don't really have any blowout losses, which helps efficiency and the MOV aspect(even though it's capped at 10).

It’s pretty random still it appears

The two obvious things are

1. Win big whenever possible
2. Play well on road by either winning road games or losing close ones to really high NET teams.

They have a bad loss it seems and that hurts them.

There's always an anomaly whenever you use one of the rating systems and Arizona is it for the NET.

Couldn't have happened to nicer guy.

The badger fan base I've seen online seem split, some aren't surprised and feel it's on Brad. Others think it's BS, and I saw one thinking it was a conspiracy by new B1G commish against Wi
