Guys,  it’s a computer model. It doesn’t use that kind of logic. Same as Kenpom, which has us favored to win all but 2 games the rest of the year but projects our record as 24-7(15-5). It assigns a probability of win based on how favored we are and then “rolls the dice”. If we played 20 games where we had a 51% chance to win, would you expect to go 20-0? Don’t read too much into it. We get to play the games

Exactly.

Exactly x100. Got to play the games. Plus the computer models do not favor MU like the Dookie's or other blue bloods.

You suitin up, Carl?
 I know what projections/models are. It's just kind of stupid and shows how bad your model is to state we are #5, but a projected 3 seed. We are either the 5th best team (and a 2 seed), or the 9th-12th best and a 3 seed.

Why is this so difficult?

If you, based on YTD performance, rank a team as of today a certain way, why would you need to project them to be at that same ranking 4 months from now?!

I read “current” for 5th best and “projected” for 3 seed. Based on projected record, doesn’t appear 100% crazy

I guess from that perspective I could get it. Every other way seems to do an "if the season ended today" projection for brackets so I didn't get it

It's not. That was my first response, this model seems to think we will regress from our current rank. Which shows the flaw in the model. I understand projected w-l change (more losses than projected), but the actual ranking shouldn't change.

On Field of 68 two days ago, both Fanta and Chris Mack picked Marquette to win the national championship and TO picked them to make the Final Four.

Fanta correctly noted that MU didn’t even play their best in Maui and says we can absolutely play better.

Thank you, Abilene Christian University for making this possible.

Actually a blue blood or not has no bearing on a computer model…data is blind…..….Houston has been a computer darling over the last number of years and they are obviously not a blue blood.

Projected as the #6 team in basketball yet a 4 seed?  Strange measuring stick being utilized here.

Current ranking vs projected ranking at the end of the year.    Still disagree with it, but that is the reason for the discrepancy.

I understand, not kidding, probably takes into account the unfortunate 4 Quad BE games that could be worse on the NET for MU than the rodent game

If we beat them convincingly, it won't hurt at all and could help. This isn't the RPI.
