Pretty decent interview here worth listening to if you are interested in understanding efficiency metrics. He talks about a lot of different stuff in this interview including how the NET rankings basically copy his rankings, and how scoring margin and running up the score is the most important thing in determining where you are ranked on his website and on the NET rankings which basically copy him. He also goes into detail about how his preseason rankings are established, how transfers, freshmen, and coaching changes impact his rankings, and how the preseason rankings also look at prior year history up to 5 years ago to rank teams. Interesting enough, he even talks about Pitt last season in this video.
In the end, this should put to bed the notion of just how important scoring margin is and running up the score against everybody is. Pitt and the acc need to run the score up in the non conference schedule game after game. Anyway, this is worth a listen to as I found some of the stuff in this interview quite interesting.
