Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 4944219, member: 1969"] This was expected. The math works based on it being a margin system. A road win at Duke is much more impressive than a home win vs Miami. Both results are great for us however tourney wise and that is the most important thing though. As for the math. We were supposed to beat Miami today by a few points. So we held steady. Pitt was supposed to lose Duke by about 13 points. Pitt beat that by 16 points, they have played 18 games, so there ADJ EM will rise by about 0.9... 0.9 is basically the difference between #70 (11.2) and #80 (10.2) in the rankings. [B]I think the more interesting thing to see will be how our NET moves tomorrow. In a margin based system our ranking should have stayed neutral as it did ... we will see how much other stuff goes into NET beyond margin, because I think our NET will move up a handful of spots.
