Dook overtakes Auburn in NET as #1 🤡🤡🤡

[Rideordiewildcat]

Its just the NET, but what a flawed system. Aub is 14-2 in Quad 1, Dook 6-3. But hey Dooks been blasting bum teams with losing records. Like Miami last night.

Miami has 6 wins and 8 losses in Quad 3-4. They've lost to 7 teams with losing records👀

8-20 #285 Charleston Southern beat them🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The Dook slurping is ridiculous. They play bums. SC and LSU could probably finish top 4 in the ACC. They've played 1 good team since Dec 8 2024, Clemson and lost. I hope they don't get that bunny draw like Joe has them in now. Because if in the 2nd rd they get smacked by an Ole Miss or Memphis I can see them choking.

So beating ranked teams dam near every night isn't as important as beating really bad teams by 20-30. Mine as well chuck the NET. Also Zags up to 8th lol.

So glad we beat those bums back in November. Could probably do it again with a healthy team in March, too.

 

[YardCat]

They will be the #1 seed and playing at home as usual. That is set in stone

 

[ganner918]

Duke is #1 in KenPom, #1 in Evan Miya's rankings, #2 in Bart Torvik's rankings.

Typical female student there.

What an effing joke propping up Puke like that.

 

[TheDude73]

Everyone should know these rankings were designed with Puke in mind. And I'm sure they've passed on the formulas/algorithms to Puke's schedule management team.

Yep every analytics nerd completely retooled their analytic algorithms specifically to make this one Duke season appear to be a success. Makes so much sense 😂

Clickbait on CBS Sports . com :

"dUKe in tough battle for ACC crown"

(link withheld, you'll have to google it and or / goto CBS sports . com - or maybe make a journey around the world first, I'd suggest, before actually going there to even have a chance to click on it .... )

but it figures

we ALL here had dUKe as the OVERALL #1 seed this year even knowing Auburn could go undefeated in the SEC AND OOC this year and the blue devils would somehow be overall #1, and we knew that before the conference schedule even started being played.

with the kind of conference the ACC has been, might as well make dUKe an equivalent of Gonzaga and how they did via the west coast league year in year out.... I'd honestly say dUKe could realistically be a 2 seed, but more like a 3 at the highest, considering.

The bottom line is dUKe and UConn have been / A the darlings of ESPN and the eastern sports media. Why they haven't jumped on the St. John's bandwagon i don't know why not (and that would actually be a smart thing to do ) but I'm still saying that St. John's will legit get a 2 seed, regardless of any media hype or not - Pitino has a really tough team this year.

They just beat a top 20ish team in these systems by 43 points.

It's natural they get a substantial bump in any system that values MOV.

Miami is NET 225.

14-13 USC beat them by double digits when they were healthy and didn't get much of a bump. They're still 72nd.

Bottom line is you can bea5 the school of the blind by 50 and get more credit than beating a top 15 team by 5. Horrible system. The Zags recently lost and moved up to 8th, we didn't play and dropped to 14th. Clown metrics.

 

[fatguy87]

Duke beat Illinois, a top 25 in kenpom, NET, and Barttorvik, by 43 points on Saturday. That raised their rating by enough to leapfrog Auburn with their subsequent quality performance.

 

[fatguy87]

There is a good chance Auburn overtakes Duke in the NET thanks to their beatdown of Ole Miss.

And AUB beat Ole Miss by 29. Common sense which one is more impressive 🤔

They've been dominant in the best conference every and Dook is dominating maybe the weakest ACC every.

 

[BlueBomb]

Even the computers love Duke. It would be funny if it weren’t seemingly true.

Makes no sense, Duke basically has no real games left and outside of UofL and Clemson has not had to play any team in the top 50.

And Louisville had a bunch of injuries back then and Clemson beat them.

The net makes no sense if this can happen
