Updated NET and RPI rankings through 2/27... It appears to me that the NET rankings compared to RPI rankings for Tech, Marshall, WKU and ODU are way worse than they should be. Regardless of the rank #s, the order of the RPI rankings makes much more sense. Per the NET rankings does ANYONE honestly believe that UNT is clearly the best basketball team in C-USA and WKU is a distant 4th best? Of course not. It looks like the (arguably) top four C-USA teams are getting severely handicapped in their NET ranking.
NET
UNT 64
Tech 74
Marshall 76
WKU 83
UAB 97
ODU 142
RPI
WKU 34
Tech 37

Rank Variance NET vs RPI (Positive variance is undesirable)
UNT -8 Tech +37
Marshall +22
WKU +49
UAB -9 ODU +72
