Oregon St. is No. 40 in the first NET rankings for 2023 (No. 8 among Pac-12 schools). Oregon is last at No. 109.
Some future opponents:
- No. 63 Santa Clara
- No. 128 Jackson St.
- No. 56 Texas Tech
- No. 120 Southeastern LA
IMO, if we aren’t going to schedule top-30 teams we need more in the 50-150 range so this is slightly improving on that.

Just keep winning and the NET ranking will take care of itself. One game at a time.

I've never known exactly what to think about the NET ranking, but I am happy to see the Beavs at 40. With the weak competition, I thought they may be closer to 80. Texas Tech and Santa Clara do appear to be fairly equal talents. I would rate Santa Clara's schedule a little tougher, but the two teams did play each other on a neutral site and Texas Tech won. It was a tight game all the way though. I think both of those teams could give the Beavs a challenging night. Jackson state got demolished by Kansas State, but Jackson State usually plays a hard fought game. I'm glad the competition is stepping up a bit. I'd like to see a team really pressure the Beavs and see how well the young guards can adapt to the pressure.

Just because you play better teams in conference it should improve. The NC SOS comes into play when comparing teams close in NET for post season play. Osu was a very respectable 54 (?) last year. Doesn't matter of your not in the top 6 or 7 and maybe at 9-9. It also is very dependent on other teams and especially conference tourney play. Those late bloomer/lucky teams that steal auto bids. Being in the #1 NET conference is a big leg up. However, playing a very weak NC doesn't prep you for that type of competition. A real mixed bag. |

Beavers jumped eight spots after the Santa Clara win — up to No. 27 in the NET rankings (No. 6 in the Pac-12).
