Duke is 5-5 and Kentucky is under .500. This year with covid and such has been weird. Some of the powerhouses have been mediocre at best. Just curious...

Funny. Except questioning anything Rueck is frowned upon over on that board, you know, because he's been so successful. One time I criticized Pat Casey on the baseball board. That was well received. I questioned Quizz and team chemistry once. Same result...

I finally found the game replay on Pac12. Last 2 times it was shown on the schedule they showed Cal/Utah and USC/UCLA. I finally clicked in USC/Cal and there it was. Seems obvious now.

NET updated through games on 02/28:
OSU has moved up to 108 with the sweep in the bay. The Stanford win was our 3rd quadrant 1 win of the season, to go with 5 quad 1 losses and an 0-4 quad 2 record. The 5-2 quad 4 record still looms large and is probably the biggest hinderance keeping us in the triple digits and not up around where Stanford is at in the 60-70 range.
A road sweep with a quad 1 win only moving us up 12-15 spots is indicative that there just isn't much room to keep climbing the standings, even with 2 more wins this week. Both the game @utah and home against oregon will be quadrant 2 games, so even wins in both probably only put us in the 90-100 range.
More than likely we'll need to win the Pac-12 tournament for any shot at the NCAAs, if we do win out and get the 5 seed, MAYBE 2 quad 1 wins against Colorado (NET #13) and whoever wins the conference (preferably USC from a NET perspective) would bump us into bubble range, but it seems likely that winning the tournament is the only real shot.
This year's opponent's rankings: 13. Colorado 25. USC 38. UCLA 39. Arizona 44. oregon 64. Stanford 93. Utah 101. WSU 105. ASU 174. UTSA 186. Wyoming 188. California 199. Washington 237. Portland State 328. Portland (YIKES)

Man those two "Portland" games are killers...WY doesn't help either. At least we won the PSU game.... That UP game though absolutely. We probably are talking about being a bubble team just by winning those two home games in December. 15-9 (9-9) would look really good in this wacky season.

If OSU could have played the Colorado State game to start season that would have helped strength of schedule also. CSU is currently at 43 in NET instead do to Covid with CSU the Beavers had to play California who is at 188 CSU is on the bubble or in NCAA according to most predictions.. Could have been a quality win for OSU
