Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 4536275, member: 591"] The polls largely work exactly the way [USER=2685]@Rb335[/USER] said so succinctly. UConn lost to Marquette in the period in question, while Stanford pounded a ranked team, Indiana beat highly ranked Iowa, etc. One could argue with LSU ahead of Connecticut I suppose, but things like wins, losses etc. are more impactful on polls than metrics. The RPI is a flawed metric, which is why the committee turned to the NET as a primary guide. It is strongly impacted by UConn's exemplary strength of schedule in the OOC. All that matters is the committee's evaluation when the time comes. I see no reason if UConn wins out that they will not be one of the four #1 seeds, if South Carolina wins out they will get the top spot, but the other spots are in play. Their upcoming "reveal" should be interesting. [/QUOTE]
