Basketball Penn State opens No. 34 overall in Net Rankings

[Richie O]

Penn State comes in at 34 in the NET Rankings. The lone loss to Clemson (Q1, 18) is considered a really good loss, plus it was on a neutral court so barring a monumental collapse from the Tigers it should remain a Q1. The rest of the schedule looks very favorable.

Remaining landmines:
12/14, vs. Coppin State (Q4, 363)
12/21, @ Drexel (Q3, 157)
12/29 vs. Columbia (Q4, 346)
2/4, vs. Minnesota (Q3, 155)

Penn State has 15 combined Q1 & Q2 games remaining on their schedule so plenty of opportunities to earn wins and build the resume.

Pretty weak schedule. They better rack up wins.
