I’d recommend people listen to what he said, because it’s worse than Kellis is letting on. He basically said people kept suggesting he start Dug, and he was getting pissed because Dug didn’t deserve it, but then God told him to give Dug a chance.


yikes

On average the Big 12 had the hardest Non-Conference SOS per KenPom. Not surprised to see the SEC with the easiest Non-Conference SOS.

Honestly ncsos is a worthless measure though.

It's more about how bad your bad teams are than if you scheduled some tough games for your "real" games. (Which is why we are so low despite playing some respectable games in Maui/Marquette/Iowa)

If you look at WAB, which somewhat compensates for this (as none of the buy games are "above bubble"), most of the SEC is sitting in the top 30

I’m shocked ours is 243 having played Auburn, Dayton, Colorado, Marquette, and Iowa.
It goes to show that it's a horrible metric. We are that low not because we did not play respectable teams, but because our buy games were 300+ teams instead of 200+, which shouldn't matter for any team of tournament level.
