And guess what, you'll start to see other power conference teams doing it, especially the ones with 20 conference games.

Fascinating! I did not know that. It's an amazing opportunity for the rest of us to get a shot at home at a number 1 team.
Congratulations!

Miami's opponents are 28-39 so far
Georgetown is 12-54 so far
plus Miami's scoring margin is about 4.3 ppg better than Georgetown. 17.8-22.1
Also, Miami does have a win vs Minnesota(on the road to boot).
Also, Miami has exempt tournament still left- where they could get added games with Davidson and then USC.

I was trying to point out the temptation to overrate an undefeated team. Miami is currently ranked 6th/8th with a SOS of 297.
