We're in. That's all that matters.

Jerry Palm has us as a #10 vs #7 St Johns after last night.
- Thread starter cliftonparksufan
- Start date
Our NET ranking shot up from 59 to 49 after last night's win. Huge step in the right direction. But still a lot of work to be done.
I consider the Pitt game to be whatever "one small step down from a must-win" is. We simply can't continue to lose games at home against mediocre competition, it's killing our resume.

Meh we have .750 winning percentage in the toughest conference in the country should be way higher. @OSU and @Duke are exactly what you need to make early OOC losses not matter.
There will be a bad loss or two somewhere but I am feeling better the more I think about it about ending ACC play in the top 4/5 in the standings which is where we were picked preseason.

The quadrant formula (what qualifies as a Q1 win, Q2 win, etc.) is actually the same as last year, just that they use the NET instead of RPI this year.
Quadrant 1: Home 1-30; Neutral 1-50; Away 1-75
Quadrant 2: Home 31-75; Neutral 51-100; Away 76-135
Quadrant 3: Home 76-160; Neutral 101-200; Away 136-240
Quadrant 4: Home 161-plus; Neutral 201-plus; Away 241-plus
Quadrant 1: Home 1-30; Neutral 1-50; Away 1-75
Quadrant 2: Home 31-75; Neutral 51-100; Away 76-135
Quadrant 3: Home 76-160; Neutral 101-200; Away 136-240
Quadrant 4: Home 161-plus; Neutral 201-plus; Away 241-plus

If you are talking 3 Q1 road wins that may be the case. But in terms of Q1 wins (home or road), there are a number of teams with more, and many more with 3.

Just remember conference standing is irrelevant in seeding. Of course if you have a great conference record in a power conference you are going to do well in the other metrics they look at other than standing.
This is even more relevant now when we actually only have 4 conference games. Our OOC is still a major part of our resume (13 of 17 games) and probably still over half of our key games. This will be diminished.
I think a 10 seed is fair. Bad results still matter.

Sure just our pro rated conference schedule is good.
After the GT game I got slammed for daring to compare us to NC St and suggesting they'd find themselves on the bubble at some point and that they were just peaking right now.
They are currently down 15 to Wake.
FSU has already piled up 3 ACC losses. Whoever is doing the seeding probably has them as a 2 seed while we are a 10.

Having 2 good road wins and 1 elite road win will be a huge differentiator from other potential bubble teams. The whole reason we didn’t get in Andrew Whites year was because we couldn’t win on the road. Ironically our losses this year aren’t good so it will cancel out some of the shine of those 3 roaD wins. But we’re at the point now where as long as wE take care of business at home we will put ourselves in a good spot

Im not sure what was wrong with my take that we didn't suck just because we dropped a game to a middle of the pack ACC team. Noone else will beat Duke at Cameron this year.
Were a good team albiet with some major issues and we will have a few more losses than people like but we can win in March like we did last year regardless of our record. Even next year if Oshae and Tyus return we probably won't be able to have a UVA type regular season with sub 3-4 losses.
