I mean I know IU sucks, but help me on this. Ohio state is clearly worse, I mean complete trash. How the hell were they 29 in net before our game???

After our game they dropped to 37. That makes sense to me. What doesn’t, is we went from 62 to 61? 8 point dogs and quad one 1 against your 29th team and we move up 1? Wtf.

Don’t get me started on Kenneth. We went down somehow last night in Kenpom. Ya you read that right, 57 to 58. While OSU is almost double ahead of us at 33. Shit is so stupid. Auburn and Maryland boat races these dudes. Just because we got stomped 5 times doesn’t mean they are better, they are still freaking 10-8. L is an L, and obviously with our team we either show up or play drunk. Sometimes maybe literally.

We need more eye test ranking. Anyone with a brain would say IU is better than OSU right now.

But a contingent of fans say differently!

Right now? Yes. But OSU has a huge victory over Kentucky. They also have lost some very close games… computers like that. They don’t like teams getting boat raced by Louisville, Iowa, Illinois, etc. if we just simply compete in those games, we’re probably 15 spots higher. Gonzaga losing to Oregon State also not helpful for us.

Yeah. NET based on the entire season and not on a lucky bounce in an overtime game.
 
Preseason rankings had us in the mid-teens. KenPom had us #39 to start the year — pretty good call. And yea KP isn’t perfect.

Iowa getting beat bye UCLA by 24 after they beat IU by 25. Rutgers beating Nebraska @ Nebraska did not help. Ohio St is dropping like a rock. Providence, Gonzaga lost and South Carolina has lost 4 in a row!

Doesn’t make sense. I think part of what may explain it is when IU loses, it’s by a substantial margin.
 
Yep, math rankings based upon final scores, that obviously undervalue winning and losing and not the flow of the game bother me as well.

I'm surprised somebody hasn't used AI to formulate a math ranking, that's an improvement over the current trendy math rankings, hasn't occurred over the last few few years.


Also, I would love AI to analyze games to evaluate how badly officials perform.

Kenpom is possession based efficiency. And, AI is currently a mentally handicapped child.
