Counter - We should not lose to them away either and road wins help your NET. If you are going to play 1-2 road games in your non-con, why waste one on a team in the 200s. Play a top 75 high major team and it helps your tournament profile Why not both? It would be every other year or every 5th year. The away win at Brown could be a Quad 3 win vs a Quad 4 win at home.

There is literally nothing to gain from playing at Brown

So we are saying there is no difference between a Q3 and Q4 win.....
BTW, a home loss to Brown is a Q4 loss, so I guess we just shouldn't play them.

Yes I am saying there is literally no difference between a Q3 and Q4 win. Those are games if you lose, they are bad losses. I’m fine with playing no buy games, but that’s just not how CBB works right now. You are going to play 5-6 of them a year

Q3 and Q4 wins can help metrically though, but not with the teams we're playing or how we're playing them. You need to beat these teams by 40+. It doesn't matter if they're the worst team in D1, the NET seems to love huge scoring margins against any opponent.

Yale beat Quinnipiac last night 73-66. Q is now 7-3 so yale's win helps a little bit. (Every bit helps!)

Tennessee and NC State in a tight one in San Antonio. NCS has one big dude in the middle who started his career at Tennessee. And by big I don't mean 7 foot height big.

#22 Virginia got blown out (on the road) to #23 Memphis. You have to expect though they'll fall out. Other top 25 play tonight and through weekend. We'd be looking for those in the 17-25 range to lose to open up slots.
Beat Butler Sat we're ranked.

It's apparently a Jordan Brand thing, as these four were the original Jordan Brand schools. So, the "why" is probably because "sponsor said so."

Gonzaga loses at home to San Diego State. 1st Non-con home loss since 2015. 20/10 for Ike. Would have looked good in Black and White.
