I'm shocked we're as high as 84 - getting a ton of mileage from a road win at OSU I guess.
@mr_woogers That is the best win but pounding teams has a bigger impact than people think. The Little Rock and Evansville wins help a lot because we won big. It’s a shame we couldn’t hold that Evansville game to around 40 like we had at one time.
This NET ranking for us shows that there actually has been progress. Maybe not quite as much as we’d like to see, but there has been. I think this team does very well in the Valley.
3 Q1 games so far is good to see. UNLV is a missed opportunity but their 44 NET shows how much better they’ve been compared to their KenPom ranking. One reason I’m not a huge fan of KenPom, especially before conference play.
Arguably 5 top 100 teams from the Valley is great to see; sure we don't have one or two legit Top 25 teams, but solid strength in the top half of conference so far which will help as the year goes on.

Lots of Q2 games on the schedule, especially on the road. Bradley is close to providing a Q1 opportunity.
Bradley is officially in the Q1 range for a road game. Good for the valley. There’s 2. SIU needs to be a third.

Those Bradley-SIU games are going to be great games. Not sure they'll be the most watchable games but they're so similar.
