What’s keeping UConn’s NET so high? Close losses?

What’s keeping UConn’s NET so high? Close losses?

IIRC they were number 1 for a while. It might not seem like it, but they've likely fallen quite a bit. All we see the NET rank, we don't see the actual NET score. So the distance between #1 and #7 in NET could actually be larger than the distance between #10 and #100 (unlikely it's that big but there is likely a lot of separation between each of the top 10).

As for why their NET is so high, it's because of how dominant they were to start the season. They literally each of their first 13 games by double digits including beating Alabama (#3 in NET currently) by 15 and Iowa State (#9) by 18 on neutral courts.

As the season goes on, each individual game means less and less. When they beat Florida by 20 on the road, that game was worth 10% of their NET score. Now when they lose to Xavier by 3 at home that game is only worth 4.2% of their NET score. As the season goes on, each individual score is going to change their overall NET less and less.

Finally, they only have 1 bad loss (by 11 at home to SJU). Their other 5 have all be Q1 losses and 3 of them have been by 6 points or less. Their early season dominance balances that out.

All that being said, UConn looks broken. I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish 500 or worse in conference.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

They won their first 13 games by double digits, including teams that have proven to be elite like Alabama and Iowa State. That props them up a ton.

Thanks TAMU and Brew for the insight. I know I'm bias but it just feels like they should be lower than 7 with 6 losses.

If will be interesting how they will use the NET in their case for seeding if that holds.

I was expecting that St Johns loss to ding them pretty good but like the others have mentioned, they must have had a decent enough cushion.

NET is by no means perfect, but I think it’s actually a good metric and if you look at a team’s schedule you can usually diagnose why their ranking is what it is.

I get a kick out of people on Twitter trashing the NET because they think their team is ranked too low and then you look at their schedule and it’s… 2 point win in a buy game, 5 point win in another buy game, 12 point loss at home vs mid major, etc.

We’ll see how it plays out but I think the committee will take UCONN’s NET ranking at face value and not chalk it up as an aberration like they possibly would with one or two other teams.

And this is why I simply cannot understand the scoopers who say they want to see UW lose despite the fact that it may hurt us come Selection Sunday. Every little bit counts. After Selection Sunday? Hell yes, I hope they get embarrassed on the court, assuming they are in the tourney.

I rarely post, but NO.

I dont give 2 sh!ts about Badger losses hurting us.  F&%'em to the moon and back.

TAMU has it right. Cheer for them to lose every game by 1 so they are always Q1 or Q2 but rarely make the tournament.

Exactly, a surprisingly fun jump on DePaul day.

Don’t underestimate how clutch that 2H blowout was, a close win woulda cost MU a few spots

Yep. margin of victory, especially compared to expectation, is a big thing with NET, unfortunately.

Big game at the Wachovia Center this morning.

I’d like to see Providence drop one today and drop to 8-3 because coach Ed and those guys have a lot of Moxie when it comes to getting big wins when they need them.

I’d like to see them drop further behind in the chase for the BE title.

As for NET purposes, Providence is currently at 34, 4 spots away from becoming a quad 1 win at home.
Nova is at 90, 15 spots away from the top 75 cutoff for a road Q1.

Their end of the season schedule is brutal
Providence, @MU, @Creighton next 3 and still have @Providence, @X, @SH, v Creighton and v UConn left.
That’s an insane gauntlet to end the season for an already underachieving 10-10 Villanova squad.
Itll be tough to find a way to finish above .500 in Neptunes first season
