So basically you are just going to pick teams based on their biggest win.   Sort of silly when some teams have 3 times as many opportunities for those types of win as others.    If you are going to base selections of the "biggest win" when those teams have opportunities that others do not why even bother even considering at larges from outside the top 7 or so conferences.

Drake is 6-2 in Q1+Q2 games.  They have a NET of 46, a KP of 53, which justifies at least getting consideration and possibly the benefit of the doubt over a P5 team that goes 1-6 or 2-7 or 2-6 in Q1 games.

Drake will be an interesting one.   One of the reasons for the change to the  "NET" was to give a better number to analyze these mid-major schools because the RPI was totally unreliable in that regard.     Some mid-majors were getting RPI's in the 40s that made no sense.

I'm not even saying Drake should be in over Syracuse.    But they deserve careful consideration.   If they miss, they miss -- they are a tough case that could go either way.
