If you take the 4 Top-16 teams from last week that are currently not ranked due to having only 2 Away meets among their 6 total meets ...
California (was #9)
Kentucky (was #10)
Oregon State (was #13)
Arkansas (was #16)
... then use each team's six scores to simulate an NQS ... drop high and average the remaining 5.

Here is what the Top-16 would look like ...

California & Kentucky both have an Away Meet before they will be ranked ... they can drop their low home scores of 196.325 & 196.525 respectively (if they score higher this weekend).

OSU & Arkansas both have a Home Meet this weekend (both 2/25) ... then an Away Meet on 3/4 before being ranked on 3/7 ... for both a home score on 2/25 can only increase their 3/7 NQS if it is higher than their current 2nd lowest home meet score (since the lowest away meet score, on 3/4, will be dropped by that Away meet score) ... for OSU that is 197.000 for UArk that is 195.675.
OSU's & Arkansas' current low scores (both home) are 195.550 & 195.450 respectively, both lower than the current Top-15's low NQS score.
