Gophers would be hard pressed to be favorites on a neutral court over any of those teams other than maybe St. Marys.Penn State (41) is still ahead of the Gophers in KenPom (46). I am certainly not a huge fan of this Gophers squad, but other teams rated above the Gophers that I'd certainly like their chances against: Indiana, Nebraska, Utah State, Oklahoma, Iowa (34!), North Carolina State (32!!), Saint Mary's, Clemson, Texas (29 at 16-16!). Those are just the teams I'd favor (even if just slightly) the Gophers over ranked above them and I am only looking at teams I've seen play.
I'd take everyone but Northwestern in the B1G over NC State from what I've seen of that group..and they beat Clemson yesterday.

Not sure how a nice stretch of 10 games makes penn state better and this unbelievable team lately. Every team in big ten has had a nice 10 game stretch this year. They haven't even beaten us this year in two tries. Why the love fest for a 14-18 team? They have some nice players, but so does everyone else.Like Penn State will miss the tourney while the gopher make it.

The gophers beat them both times they played this year and they have the better overall record. Kind of makes sense.

This is probably the dumbest thread ever posted on this site.
The NET system is obviously flawed and gives way too much credit for close losses. In this case, 18 of them.
Don't go away mad, just go away.
great humor for a Friday morning, thanksThis is probably the dumbest thread ever posted on this site.

I’m pretty sure OP is being sarcastic. He’s not seriously arguing that Penn State is better than Minnesota, he’s saying that a ranking system that puts a 14-28 team above us is very flawed. He’s criticizing the NET, not the Gophers.
So, after the Gophers beat Penn State and pick up another Quad 1 win...
Nittany Lions CLIMB 2 spots in the NET
Gophers DROP 1 spot...

So we beat them and went up a spot to 57 and they dropped down two spots to 47? WTF. How is that even possible?
Sometimes algorithms are dumb.
