FWIW, here is updated NCAA & NIT bracketology from DRtaings:

https://www.dratings.com/predictor/bracketology/

In the NCAA tourney, they have Duke (as a #1 seed), Clemson (6), Louisville (7), UNC (11), SMU (11), Grand Canyon (13), & Norfolk State (15).

For the NIT, they have Pitt (1), Wake Forest (2), Utah Valley (4), Santa Clara (5), & Stanford (6).

They also do game predictions and have Stanford's win probability at Georgia Tech at 55.8%, with a projected score of 76.1-73.9 (with Blakes & Gealer listed as questionable).

By these numbers, Stanford is 8th in the ACC. Let's work with that for now. Stanford amazingly has played or will play all 7 of the teams above it on the road. Stanford only plays 2 of them at home (SMU, Wake). The Cardinal has suffered on the road, going 1-4 vs. the teams above it with games remaining at Duke and at Louisville. Stanford also lost to Wake at home with SMU upcoming.

Overall this looks to me like the record of an NIT team.
