Stats Corner: Ripping Down the NET

Let’s get this addressed up front, MWC Connection had a t-shirt made that says “To make everything 100% clear, yes we are biased against your team” So yes, I am bias against all of the 5 teams listed below, plus the 6 teams we covered last week. Now that we have sorted that out, last week we looked at the NET rankings for the bottom six schools in the conference. This week, we are looking at the top 5 schools and how their post-seasons may look, using the NET “suggestion” to the committee. Remember the NET rankings are a “suggestion” or a tool to help, which explains why Alabama (NET 54), Indiana (NET 55), and Seton Hall (NET 63) are all considered in, but Creighton (NET 50) and Murray St (NET 52) are classified as bubble teams.
