True. Another data point in “gaming” the NET is BYU @Chris Coleman
BYU is 7th in NET but is 4-4 in B12 & played 249th OOC schedule dominated those teams by 40 or so…and there they sit. Also just 3-5 in Q1
Their RPI is 41
So @Cvillehoops13 I’m still at a loss to why you think NET is so much better than RPI? Neither is perfect, but it’s obvious that NET promotes blowing out a bunch of bad teams OOC
South Carolina is 19-3 has beaten UK & won at UT, yet sits 38??? Something smells and it’s the NET

This year’s team is a hard watch, but we are a pretty good team.
