One of the game commentators during the Nova vs Seton Hall game was going on about how UT was built to win a championship. Mentioned that they were tough, experienced and could shoot the ball.Nothing on ESPN, nothing on Yahoo and the recap on ESPN felt like Kentucky won, and then Tennessee won the game at the end. This is pathetic, give this team their due.
Gonzaga gets a 1 seed because it passes the āeye testā, but weak as schedule. They lost to TN, UNC and Saint Marys and play a high school schedule. UT has the better resume but no eye test, makes no sense. Why is Michigan state being mentioned as a possible 1 seed? They have some bad losses.
I donāt get how we are behind Gonzaga in the NET rankings and thatās what theyāll use to justify giving GU a 1 over us. Hereās the problem I have. The NET ranking appear to give an edge to those who play an easier schedule. Offensive and defensive efficiency is included as is margin of victory. Yes the MoV is capped but you have 2 categories that will definitely be better for teams with an easy schedule. Who you play is a factor as well but does it weigh equally to those other categories? I have to think not when GU is ahead of us despite having 3 games against top 25 NET teams and being 1-2. We are 6-4 against the top 25. We also have played 21 games against top 100 and they are nowhere near that number at only 10. We played 10 top 25 games. Does anyone else understand it? I sure donāt. I do admit I donāt know exactly how the NET works yet so I may just not understand the formula but given we played a much tougher schedule that GU and only have one more loss something tells me I wonāt agree with it anyway. I get that it doesnāt factor in beating them but thatās where the humans should come into play.Lunardi said he has Tennessee a #2 Seed even if they win the SEC Tournament
