It’s time for another installment of Villanova’s Quad Goals, our ongoing series in which we track the Wildcats’ NCAA Tournament Resume. If you need a refresher on the NET ratings or the Quad System, check out our previous article for additional details.
Two weeks ago those losses to Penn and Furman were both Quad 1. Unfortunately, since then both teams have dropped back-to-back games. Penn’s loss to a KenPom sub 200 Monmouth team dropped them into the Q2 range, while Furman has fallen through the floor and now counts as a Q3 loss. With at least a few more losses probably coming before selection Sunday, I figured it was time to look at how the NCAA Tournament selection committee looks at non-Q1 losses.
