Damn, might finish over 100, ugly year, with JWill return we had an outside shot for tourney, NIT seemed very likely and net was rising. Now here we are ready to crack the century mark.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

We will finish between 80 and 115. How we play in our four remaining regular-season games and the B1G tourney will decide it. I'm guessing we'll be at 95 on Selection Sunday. Hoping for better, of course.

Rutgers' NET ranking remains at 98.

Really enjoyed Scott Van Pelt's NET segment last night...

he is right yet Lunardi and a bunch of other metric guys are pushing back hard on this and they are somehow using BYU winning at Kansas as proof which doesnt make sense especially since Kansas had a key player out

I saw what Van Pelt/Clemson coach had to say, especially the part about how bumped up net numbers can benefit an entire conference. Van Pelt also said, there is nothing to stop other conferences from scheduling like the Big 12, so they could just schedule in a similar pattern and then play each other in conference with bumped up Net rankings. The Clemson coach almost made it sound like it was a price fixing or collusion scheme, like all the teams were on board with this scheduling in non conference play to get a benefit later in conference play. Not sure he’s accurate about that part.

The problem we struggle with at least 2 so it doesnt work. Liu and stonehill disaster responsible for 10-15 spots

Having a little fun, there are scenarios that we could finish 4th place winning out, Wisconsin, Nebraska losing out with all the teams we lose tie breakers finishing below us, and multiple 5th-8th place finishes with tie breakers if we go on another 4 game win streak. 🙃😉😂😂.

4th place
Maryland winning 2
Ohio St winning 2, lose to us
Iowa lose 2, Wisc, Nebraska lose 3
Mich St(1-2 or lower), Minnesota can be 1-2 or 2-1, not 3-0

 

[bac2therac]

Avoiding Iowa is key but decent chance they finish 7th and we are 10 if avoid play in at 8-12

Net up from 98 to 90 after the Michigan game

Net up from 98 to 90 after the Michigan game

Nice move up.

the Stonehill and even LIU gane certainly did a number on our NET this year...could be 10-15 spots higher with 81-55 type wins

 

[bac2therac]

Dropped a spot to 91

 

[bac2therac]

Up a spot to 90

Nebraska is 43

 

[RUJMM78]

What matters to me is losing to Penn State and Maryland at the RAC scoring only 46 points.Rutgers would be 17-11 right now with nine league wins.The lack of consistent scoring has been the reason for the dismal record with only three games remaining.

Down to an ugly 102

15-16
