NET Rankings - UConn vs Gonzaga

St. Mary’s is good for what it otherwise is, the program itself ain’t spectacular

St Mary's plays a gimmicky methodical style that somehow fares well in the metrics, particularly on defense. It's a slow, grind it out style that makes the other team defend and challenges their focus. It's not entirely unlike what Hurley is doing but with a much better talent. I mean it's smart in a lot of ways, and will fool the metrics, but doesn't have a chance once they go up against real competition.

Nice work with a 4 day thread where the underlying premise is that the WCC is better than the Big East. This is a big upgrade from your usual Big East trolling.

You're not going to catch me pumping up the WCC.

Yet I'm surprised you're still trying to convince everyone the BE is any good. The metrics right now are saying it's closer to the WAC than it is the B12/B10.

Not even close. Torvik and EvanMiya show quite the opposite.

As a program Gonzaga went from Cinderella to legit contender to now the most overrated program in the country. They have zero chance of winning it all.

Actually I take that back, St. Mary's is the most overrated program in the country. We always hear about how good they are and they've made one sweet 16 in the past 67 years.

was watching St Louis vs Davidson the other night and the announcers were discussing St Louis' at large chances, where they might fall in the seeding compared to other mid-majors and St Mary's was brought up. St Mary's is in the top 30 of the net without a single Quad 1 win and it seems like their net ranking is inflated every year.

They are everyone’s dream match up in March. Some lucky 3 seed gets a free win against them as a 6.

They were scaring the pants off me in the 2023 NCAA. Then their leading scorer got hurt and left the game. The kind of break you need to win the tourney.
 
We are clearly in the top 5 conferences, sure we are last but the spread is about the same as the gap between us and the 6th place conference. Get off it RuffRuff you are not making a good point.

As you can see, I wasn't the one that made the point. We are the 5th best conference no doubt, and closer to the 6th than the 2nd.
