Message: [QUOTE="Cuse181, post: 4996117, member: 8295"] Because you’re ignoring their superior quad 1 record in favor picking a stat that places Syracuse [I]closer[/I] to Michigan state. If you are 1% off in Quad 1-2 win% then it’s statistically irrelevant, meaning you need to dive deeper. They have a better quad 1 record, so they now have the edge. They’ve beaten two teams safely in the tournament, Syracuse has beaten 1. They have a superior kenpom, have a top 15 SOS, 45th in SOR, 19 in KPI. By all the metrics on the team sheet, they’re, all together, better. We just need to stay slightly realistic, Syracuse hasn’t done anything special to push others OFF the bubble, they are just trying to push their way on. [/QUOTE]
