Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 4192037, member: 7492"] As we just came off a big and much needed victory over Tennessee to aid our seeding and the fact the new polls came out today with us at #8, I want to remind everyone, specifically the less adroit forum members (like my wife) that AP ranking does not correlate to NCAA Seeding which uses NET, first used last year (after using RPI), however NET is not the sole tool. Specifically, here is the WCBB Selection committee wording: [I]"The NET is not the sole factor for NCAA tournament selection, of course, just as the RPI wasn't. These other criteria remain: availability of talent (injuries, for example), bad losses, common opponents, being competitive in losses, overall record, conference record, non-conference record, early-in-season vs. late-in-season competition, head-to-head results, regional rankings, strength of schedule, strength of conference and significant wins. There is also some subjective evaluation from personal observation that is included in committee discussions."[/I] Top 10 NET teams as of 2/7 [LIST] [*][URL='https://www.warrennolan.com/basketballw/2022/net']Team NET[/URL] [*]1. South Carolina [*]2. North Carolina State [*]3. Stanford [*]4. Louisville [*]5. North Carolina [*]6. Connecticut [*]7. Arizona [*]8. Texas [*]9. Iowa State [*]10. Baylor [/LIST] We would most likely be a #2 seed (hopefully Bridgeport). We have upside potential as North Carolina has plenty of opportunities to lose to lesser team but we also have downside as Arizona can beat some good teams. [/QUOTE]
