Some initial analysis of NET vs RPI. Is it really ranking teams that much different? As you will see from below the answer is yes, as there are some large variances. I also believe the teams that are in the top 10 on the NET List Only, vs those that are on the Top 10 in RPI only are much stronger ***. Based on early returns the move to the NET seems to be a positive.
Top 10 NET
#1. Duke (#4 in RPI)
#2. Virginia (#23 in RPI)
#3. Michigan (#7 in RPI)
#4. Houston (#11 in RPI)

#6. Texas Tech (#38 in RPI)
