quad 2 (derrota de) segundo quadrante Explanation: Please note that I was unable to find any pt_PT or pt_BR text that dealt with this matter directly, as such, my suggestion will be solely based on the following assumptions. In NCAA Basketball, teams are sorted as per their their NET Ranking. The NET ranking of any given team is -- of course -- directly influenced by their game results. Such results, however, are evaluated using a four-tiered system called "The Quadrant System", in which the weight (to be read as points) attributed to any given result is settled in accordance to the opposing team's NET placement and whether "your" team is playing at home, away, or on neutral grounds. Quadrant 1 results (very valuable = good win) Home games vs. teams in the top 30 Neutral games vs. teams in the top 50 Away games vs. teams in the top 75 Quadrant 2 results* (valuable) Home vs. NET Top 31-75 Neutral vs. NET Top 51-100 Away vs. NET Top 76-135 Quad 3 Results (marginally valuable) H vs Top 76-160 N vs Top 101-200 A vs Top 136-240 Quad 4 (bad loss) H vs Top 161 or worse N vs Top 201 or worse A vs Top 241 or worse With that said, whilst facing an opposing team, the higher their quadrant, the better your "win" (best attained); the lower their quadrant the worse your "loss" (best avoided). https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-ba... (Page depicting the current NET Rankings) In other words the source text denotes that, insofar, Texas has suffered no worse fate than a Quad 2 loss, that is: a) a Home Loss against the Top 31-75 teams; b) a Neutral Loss against the Top 51-100 teams; or c) an Away Loss against the top 76-135 teams. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2020-04-08 11:38:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Link to the source text: https://sportsprism.com/bubble-banter-huge-wins-for-four-tea... https://www.oregonlive.com/collegebasketball/2020/03/deciphering-lingo-about-mens-ncaa-tournament-bids-net-and-quadrant-system-explained.htm https://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/2018-08-22/net-rankings-what-know-about-college-basketballs-new-tool-help |

quad 2 quadrante 2 / 2º quadrante Explanation: Se entendi bem o contexto, trata-se de um sistema de pontuação/classificação da NCAA (liga atlética universitária dos EUA), baseado em quadrantes. Example sentence(s):
