I was thinking about this over the weekend. The NET Rankings are basically a statistical analysis of results. Most statistical analysis will throw out the high result and low result so the analysis is more meaningful by taking out the outliers.
My guess is if you do that with Kentucky, their Net ranking would jump up to #3 or #4 and the SEC Conference Rankings would dramatically adjust as well since many of teams have one bad loss each that is dragging the score down.

Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.

Never was a analytics/metric fan. It's only a source of reference. If teams win by a larger margin, your efficiency will be better and improve net rankings.

IMO, the NCAA should scrap the NET rating and use some sort of composite of Sagarin, KenPom, and whatever other unbiased, 3rd party rating systems out there.

Kentucky is 5th in Sagarin Rankings and 26th in KenPom.
