Just a reminder: Your bracketologist likely sucks

Palm and Lunardi seem like the most used, but neither ranks in the top 50 for accuracy among 3 year bracketologists.

I've probably posted that a dozen times in the last month and people still quote them. The Delphi guys are among the best. They haven't updated in a couple of days though.

I imagine a lot will have updates when the newest net ranking comes out.

I found that the NCAA has the most accurate bracket.

You literally just quoted Lunardi at me in the B1G thread.

New update to the net. Beating Duke moved UNC ahead of Houston. Wowweee. Duke remains 3rd. Kentucky and Tennessee both over UNC. Interesting.

What a great 2 years forUNC. They are fun to watch, and their fans are top notch. They can dismantle 6 teams come tourney time. They are definitely top 4 in the country.

Our SOS is so much stronger than theirs and Tennessee's and we are 3-1 against the top 3 in NET. Seems weird to be below both of them. Maybe 1 of them but both is a tough pill.

Oh well. UNC SOR 2. Surprised we are so low and beating Duke again didn't do relatively much at all for us. Hell Tennessee losing didn't even really affect them.

Still no idea how Houston is so high.

And I also said he sucks and threw a caveat of "assuming he's right".

You are 1-1 against healthy top 3 net teams

You are 0-1 against them. Your point?

My point is you’re acting like duke is a top three team without Zion.

They’re not.

So stop it.

I am sorry. What rank did they magically become? Because I am just looking at the facts. The model is based on objective information not subjective ones.

To act like the NET ranking differentiates between who has an injured player and who doesn't is silly. (PS: We have multiple injuries).

And, even, in your made up scenarios, UK still loses out. *Yawn* .

Apparently the net does take injuries into account
