The 2019 NCAA Tournament Bracket is officially out, and NC State was denied a bid.
Apparently the new NET Ranking system was pointless.
NC State ranked 34th in the supposedly new and improved system, that did in fact take into consideration strength of schedule. The Wolfpack were ranked higher in the NET than any of the other “bubble” teams.
NET Rankings for he First Four In
Belmont – 47th
Temple – 56th
Arizona St. – 63rd
St. John’s – 73rd
Ohio State, Ole Miss, and Oklahoma took 3 of the other bubble spots the Wolfpack needed.
