According to a tweet by Cecil, the new NET appears to reward beating the hell out of an opponent in the last 5 minutes. Running up the score as it were. I really don't like that, but I guess I should be happy about it as it should reward teams like us where scoring a lot and doing it fast is the objective instead of defense.

It sounds like it's basically going to be Ken Pom but with penalties for home losses and rewards for road wins.
I don't like that much (and I love KP). It's going to reward a lot of mediocre teams that play in good leagues (see the entire bottom half of the B10 last year).
However, selfishly, we ALWAYS end up higher in KenPom than we do in RPI/NET because we are chokers who lose lots of close games - so our efficiency figures are generally solid. ROW TAHD!
