[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 541586, member: 1776"] This article is a couple of weeks old, but I thought it was still interesting. compares the NET ratings with RPI. The biggest takeaway - you want to schedule as many cupcakes as you can and pound the crap out of them. Since the NET has a per-possession efficiency margin component and no penalty for playing bad teams (like the RPI does), the more bad teams you can beat by really large margins, the better your NET ranking will be.

As of today, in the current NET rankings they are #34. in the current RPI rankings they are #126. So in the system they used last year, they would have little chance of making the NCAA without winning alot of ACC games. But in the NET system this year they have a solid shot because they played an awful OOC but won all the games by huge margins. [/QUOTE]
