And the NCAA is in full transparency - they won't let anyone know how the formula works.
NC State clearly already figured out what was needed - patsy home court non-con and blow them all out. They scored 24 points at home in a loss this weekend and did not move down even 1 position in the NET.

Lipscomb is net #32, getting a 12 seed per the bracketologists, NCSU and Nebraska have worse net rankings but much better seeds. Makes no sense, can not have it both ways.
Same goes for net #27 Wofford, and net #37 Utah State, who is not even projected to make it into the field, yet several p5 schools with worse net ratings are projected to make the ncaat.
