LSU has no losses to Alabama's 1 and more top 100 wins and they're ranked 21 spots lower. Plus Alabama has a Quad 3 loss. I know it's early but I'm tired of LSU being perpetually in the mid-20s of the NET rankings.

Alabama (5-1) : 7

Quad 1: 1-0
Quad 2: 0-0
Quad 3: 2-1
Quad 4: 2-0

Wins:

45 Drake
76 Louisiana Tech
123 South Dakota State
206 South Alabama
247 Oakland

Loses:

138 Iona

LSU (7-0) : 28

Quad 1: 1-0
Quad 2: 0-0
Quad 3: 4-0
Quad 4: 2-0

Wins:

42 Penn State
86 Liberty
90 Belmont
157 Texas State
189 Wake Forest
292 ULM
336 McNeese State

Loses:

None

The Macneese win and ULM win must be weighing it down

Don’t worry about the math
The general takes care of all the calculations

Quads are quads though right? So once a team is low enough it doesn’t really matter since they’re in the same last Quad.

LSU’s quad records are better than or equal to Alabama’s

I think you are looking at last year.

NET hasn't come out yet.

Hopefully so because LSU is 6 in RPI

I was looking at warren nolan

I think what is going on is this season's games are being used as a continuation of last season right now. Because the NET rankings are close but not 100% the same as the last rankings of 2021

Yeah it's weird.

Duke has wins vs Kentucky and Gonzaga (who is still #1 in NET), and is ranked 49 (NET), but 1 in RPI.

The number 25 in NET is from the final NET calculation last year pre NCAA tournament.

KenPom has us at 16 and ESPN BPI has us at 12 as of this morning.

Aren’t quads just a resume thing? Net Efficiency and Team Value Index look like the two main components. Both adjust for opponents and location but it doesn’t appear to be tiered.

I think I vaguely remember Wade referencing a "rolling avg" in a media session one time. I think it was 3 or 4 years. So every game from the last 3-4 years is included and the drop the oldest season at the beginning of every year. If that's the case then it's gonna take a few weeks into the season for there to be any significant movement

This will all sort itself out as we continue to play up to our capabilities.

Let’s also not forget that Alabama lost to Iona who lost to Belmont, who LSU beat by 30.

While it is still probably a week or so early to fully see where teams really stand at the moment, the KenPom ratings are one of, if not the best predictor of national championship caliber teams. To that end, the general formula is top 40 offense combined with a top 20 defense.

Currently only 11 teams fit that criteria:

Houston
Baylor
USC
Florida
Gonzaga
Michigan
Arizona
Duke
Tennessee
LSU
Texas Tech

Kinda crazy they are so much higher with the schedules. top 200 games lsu is 5-0 bama is 3-1.
You would think those bottom 2W for bama and lau would cancel each other out and not really be a factor.
LSU Bama
Top 50-100 3W 2W
Top 100-150 0 1W & 1L
Top 150-200 2W 0
Top 200-300 1W 2W
Top 300-400 1W 0

Didn't know that. Hope the defense can keep it up at sec play. Really hate the fouls I saw last game really gonna piss me off if that's the angle refs are gonna take on us all year. kinda reminds me of a few years ago when refs were totally keeping LSU on a leash all year not allowing teams to play and then we hit tournament and finally got different refs that let them play and called games more evenly
