LOL Tennessee

borrowed from the rant ...

just for shits & giggles - USC's path to the NCAAT through the SECT could include

#17 NET Auburn (5)
#13 NET LSU (1)
#5 NET Kentucky (2)
#6 NET Tennessee (3)

Gamecocks have 7 Q1/Q2 wins with a chance at 3 more in Nashville. updated NET ranks moved Stony Brook L back up to Q3 while L at Wyoming remains Q4. that's 2 losses in Q3/Q4 total for Carolina and its 78 NET rank.

I'd like to hear the explanation how Baylor (36 NET) has 1 Q3 loss and 2 Q4 losses and isn't crucified nearly as bad as USC has been all season for its 1 Q3 and 1 Q4 losses.

Baylor 36 NET, USC 78 NET ...and the bears have more Q3/Q4 losses. 42 spots variance in the NET ranks and Baylor has more bad losses than USC.

USC
Q4 - at Wyoming (320)
Q3 - Stony Brook (160)

Baylor *all 3 at home
Q4- Stephen F Austin (313)
Q4 - Texas Southern (230)
Q3 - Oklahoma St (82)

Simple really.
Baylor doesn’t get it because they went 8-4 OOC then finished. 10-8 in what the media perceives a better conference.
Baylor also the last 5-6 years has had a better name with regards to tourney success, no they’ve never gotten to a final four but outside of that they’ve been a name in the tourney.

Also, realistically, other than this website, i really haven’t seen anyone crucify us at all.
Maybe they discussed it here and there during one of our games but from when I watched it was more the talking heads making a case for us with our SEC record
