I really think they put way too much emphasis on "Quad 4" teams. Doesn't matter if you win or lose them, just play them.
Trying to find rhyme or reason. I picked these three things, because always when the committee would be asked on seedings and who made/did not, they always mentioned these in some combination. But I think I found the issues:
1) Obviously it is where you started in the polls. Very similar to football.
2) Way overemphasis on playing "Quad 4" teams. And consequently, way too much emphasis on playing Quad 1 teams.
Anyone care to match these up with teams? Anyone care to guess what Pitt is??? Look at these, aside from those at the very top, there doesn't seem to be to be much difference. So why would one team be say NET 15 and another NET 45??
Blind resumes:
Last 10 record. Away Record. Record against AP top 25.
A. 9-1, 8-1, 5-2
B. 9-1 , 4-3 , 4-3
C. 9-1 , 8-0 , 1-1
D, 9-1 , 5-3 , 3-2
E. 5-5, 2-7, 3-6
F. 6-4, 6-3 , 5-5
G. 8-2 , 7-2, 3-2
H. 8-2, 6-4 , 3-2
I. 8-2 , 6-2 , 3-1
J. 6-4 , 6-2 , 3-1
K. 8-2 , 5-2, 2-4
