I wanted to provide a little breakdown of some blind resume comparisons.
Below I selected 5 teams with similar records to compare side by side. This comparison is using KenPom Rankings unless otherwise stated. I will highlight the highs and lows of each row for a quick snapshot look. I will also note that the NET ranking is being used more and more to determine Tournament seeding nowadays, which may or may not benefit the Sooners as they have a loss vs. #39 NET Sam Houston St as well as #6, #8, #10
Keep in mind, OU finished with a NET at 39 last year, missing the tournament, and Rutgers got in with a NET of 80.
Let me know your thoughts.
Clearly OU is one of these teams, but did any of these teams surprise you?
Do you think all of them make the tournament?
What do you see happening for OU to make it in?
Any other team you would like for me to look at?
I will reveal the teams later this afternoon.
