Potentially interesting note. The quadrant records in these NET rankings are not simply splitting the 364-team long list into 4 sections and tallying up the numbers. Per this article from NCAA (though slightly dated it seems), home, neutral, and away has a pretty big impact on defining the quadrants.
"Using the quadrant system, which was in its fourth season in 2020-21, the quality of wins and losses will be organized based on game location and the opponent's NET ranking.
Quadrant 1: Home 1-30, Neutral 1-50, Away 1-75
Quadrant 2: Home 31-75, Neutral 51-100, Away 76-135
Quadrant 3: Home 76-160, Neutral 101-200, Away 135-240
Quadrant 4: Home 161-353, Neutral 201-353, Away 241-353"
