Maryland at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD
- Thread starter Travis Miller
- Start date
The battle between TKR and Queen was very interesting. I wish TKR could pass out of the post every now and then. It's becoming a black hole in there. And sometimes Smith and TKR think they're the only players on the court. Even though we didn't have a ton of turnovers, there was a bad one mid-second half that was primarily due to that issue.
It’s December - we’ve beaten Bama, Ole Miss, NC State, and a one loss extremely talented Maryland team today - these games make you better in March - could care less what we are now
College basketball's NET rankings, explained
Here's everything you need to know about college basketball's NET ranking system.

What is NET?
The NCAA Evaluation Tool (NET) is a rankings system used by the NCAA Tournament to assist in seeding teams for the NCAA Tournament. The system is based on game results, strength of schedule, game location and net offensive and defensive efficiency.
Is the NET the only tool used to seed teams?
No. If it were then predicting a bracket ahead of time would be very easy. NCAA Committee members are given NET as one of their tools to help them seed teams. Committee members will also look at the data points that make up the NET rankings and other metrics to help seed teams.
The key really with all of it is, what has the committee always said: Play a good schedule, play games on the road, and win. That's the point of the quads. Also, take a look at last year's NET rankings from the end of the regular season. Why didn't everyone's darling, Indiana State, make the field? Because they were 1-4 in Q1 games. Yet their NET was 28, ahead of 15!!!!! teams that actually DID make the field - as at-large bids, not AQs.

I’ve urged him for months to stop snacking on paint chips— to no avail.
Looks like he got ahold of a batch with an especially potent lead content….
We have learned that playing a tough schedule - as long as you are competitive - not only helps you with seeding but helps you in MarchCollege basketball's NET rankings, explained

Months? He’s been posting garbage for years.
Purdue will be ok. Maryland is a good team. If we can get a 3-6 seed in Midwest region, that’s all that matters.
My eyes,,........even though they lost MD pretty darn good. Top tier B10 team.
If he can get by Bittle of Oregon, Queen consistent play like that will lead to 1st team All B10. Pro

I agree I was responding to someone that said we would go up in kenpom with the win.
I feel we arent quite getting the full bump our tough schedule says it should
Thanks for this but this didnt at all say NET rankings dont mean anything. There are always outliers like Indiana State last year as no metric system is perfect, but the NET has been much better than the absolute joke that the RPI was.College basketball's NET rankings, explained

Just have to say I’m super psyched we won that game - extremely high level. BTW did you notice the refs let them play and the game was so much more enjoyable?

Late to the game but want the entire point was that our net would be negatively affected by game difference of win of 5 vs 10? So then the question is by how much?
Really very little if anything. Some of the stuff I linked talked about how MOV has been taken out of the formulas.
Black hole ....lmao 🤣
Shoot Braden shoot!!!!
Colvin and Heide can sky above the rim ,
More phi slamma jamma ....
TKR you in there man , the black ho done swallowed you 🥰

We DO know more......up to 26, just above Michigan State. Maryland dropped two spots to 13, and Illinois is at 12.
Other conference teams in top 25 are Oregon (15), Ohio State (21), and Michigan (23).
Damn only moved up 3 spots in NET. The NET is very unfavorable toward us this year and I dont get it with us having one of the hardest SOS so far to boot and having 2 neutral court wins as well
Like how is OSU not to mention multiple other big ten teams ahead of us. Absurd. Hopefully it balances out as we go on but 10 games is a solid sample size by now
Because NET is just one of many metrics used. It isn’t the greatest because it values blow outs more than beating a team by 5-10. Also it’s VERY early in the season still and it will continue to change.
Also, it does not matter much at this point and as long as Purdue gets a 3-6 seed in the midwest region, that’s all the really matters IMO
I agree and I expect it to change. Im not outraged, it just is weird. OSUs sos is way worse than ours and a worse record. In metric only things like kenpom they are quite a bit below us.
Just odd net is so down on us
Please explain to me how we are 26th in the Net and 12th on Kenpom which I think uses the metrics more accurately. How’s that for a 14 year old?
If you want to be a keyboard warrior that’s fine but maybe you need the total context of a response before you make similar posts
Oops. I quoted the wrong person. Meant to quote Krrazy…
