KenPom gives Florida State a 40% chance to beat Clemson and a 4% chance to beat Duke. These games are not the same! This system lacks granularity in each Quad, as well as compatibility in comparing across Quads!
Use WAB or other strength of record metric and ditch this nonsense!

I implore you all to deviate from the quoting of W-L vs Quads. A quad 1 game is 1-30 at home, 1-50 neutral site, or 1-75 in an away game.
For example, Florida State plays at #3 Duke on March 1st and home to #30 Clemson on February 15th. Both Quad 1 games, BUT...

Probably both? But probably--definitely--feels more like luck when your team was one of the victims

Also, the graph at the top of the team pages. (Also not complaining!)

Notable.
But, extremely notable when the guy that was clearly Iowa State's top performer and best player through the first 13 games is not one of the two.
