Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 2481451, member: 1969"] They may (or may not) de-emphasize road wins this year. There is a theoretical reason for it. The most important metric has always been top 1-50 record. [B]But this metric always overvalued lower tier home wins, and did not capture good road wins (like 51-75)[/B]. So it forced the committee to look at road wins separately. The "Quadrant One" record essentially eliminates this bolded issue. By only counting home games between 1-30, and road games from 1-75, the quadrant one record essentially equalizes all games whether they were at home or road. So perhaps they choose not to double down on road wins... or they probably do. But let's just keep winning. [/QUOTE]
