Yes. This is exactly it. RPI is meaningless now anyway, not sure why people are obsessed with it here

While its not the "standard" now, its certainly interesting to note that between it, (the old standard) and the NET can be SO different. Over 70 spots for a team is a huge difference. I can't believe anything about the NET benefits many non power conferences either. Another way to squeeze out the little guys.

Final Reg Season RPI

Tech 33
WKU 48
ODU 49
Marshall 62
UAB 83
UNT 88

Avg. 60.5


Final Reg Season NET

UNT 67
Tech 75
Marshall 79
WKU 85
UAB 88
ODU 132

Avg. 87.7


I think we all can agree that the NET ranking is a joke especially considering the top 4 teams are ODU, UAB, WKU and Tech.

ODU is rated way too low in the NET, so is WKU and UNT & Marshall are ranked too high.

Both rankings are a joke.

La Tech 54
WKU 67
Marshall 71
UNT 78
UAB 86
ODU 91

Final average rankings between the two. I mean if anything, it shows there's truly not much separating these top 6...and if we're being honest, this is still a one bid league in 2021.

I think pod play would have helped here some... however, anyone can win this tournament.

I feel like the avg between the 2 paints a pretty accurate picture actually.

Me too. Save for UNT still being ranked above UAB after the Blazers just swept UNT in Denton. It's kinda hard to defend that.
