Now we just need someone to do as you and many of us agreed - create a hybrid ranking 50 pct NET and 50 pct RPI then let’s see what it looks like. Simply the quadrants to home, away and neutral with records vs top 50, top 100, top 150 and then 150 plus as means to look at performance against the rest of the country.
I wouldn’t change the quad system back to top 50, top 100. I would keep it the same as now — I don’t see it as the problem here. The underlying rankings that feed the quad groups are.
The quad system to me is much better now — road games are much harder and I am fine with the quads being extended or shortened for that. Also allows for more q1 and q2 oops for mid majors via road games — although that has been negated by power conferences getting more opps as well.
I would change the factor in NET that seemingly gives extra value to road wins. Inherently efficiency systems already adjust for road / home to begin with, so it’s double counting in my view — my guess is the NET expands the value of margin variances from expectation on the road by 40%. Bring that back to flat.
But 50/50 would solve lots of things. I won’t run all the quad records but I will show what the new NET/RPI hybrid would look like this year.
