That site looks as if it makes some attempt to factor home/away into its SOS. That's how Texas Southern (who played all its NC games on the road, and lost all of them) gets to be #1 in your rankings.First two results from my Google search returned:
NCAA College Basketball Non-Conference SOS Rankings
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That's kind of my point. There are so many numbers and criteria that I could ask ten people to rank these teams not only using this criteria but the others as well, and I could get ten different rankings. It's all how a person interprets the data. It's a crap shoot. Might as well flip a coin.
Perfect, happy to be wrong on this.That site looks as if it makes some attempt to factor home/away into its SOS. That's how Texas Southern (who played all its NC games on the road, and lost all of them) gets to be #1 in your rankings.
How is this even a discussion then? We should be in with ease.From Seth Davis.
It’s really the fact we lost a lot of games against bad conference teams IMO.How is this even a discussion then? We should be in with ease.
I hear you. Such a silly reason, though, when this happens to a lot of teams. And those were all close games. While, I don’t think there should be a great emphasis on style points (blowout wins), close losses should be taken into consideration somewhat. Like I’ve been saying for the past several weeks, we’re a few bounces away from being Clemson.It’s really the fact we lost a lot of games against bad conference teams IMO.
We should have beaten ND, Wake, GT and we are safely in.
