Message: [QUOTE="ISUnorth, post: 4560744, member: 11911"] The Big 12 NET's are why the NET is only one of the tools used. I see it more of a tie breaker tool when the other factors are causing a coin flip. I'm an ISU alumni and the Cyclones NET has been weirdly high all season and without Soares at center the number is just plan stupid. ISU probably won't even be ranked after today yet there were still some of my fellow fans looking at NET like it means we have a shot at hosting still, LOL. Sooners should be higher NET but I am still not sure they should be Top 16 and hosting. They don't play great defense and can foul a lot. Texas, less their periodic clunkers, should still be the best Big 12 tournament this March. BTW, both are 14-4, not 14-2 in league. With the league down I thought 14-4 would win it outright and 13-5 might be good for a share, wasn't off by much. Overall the Big 12 has really sucked compared to past years. The problem with the Big 12 tournament having any impact is (1) the league sucks so there won't be anything like the Big Ten's semi-final's of four hosting teams (2) it's the last weekend and stuff is decided (as it should be, it's a 30 game season).
