    The committee doesn't look at just RPI. There are a number of factors there but I do think we should hope Arky goes 2 and Que.

    Absolutely. And we need to get ahead of Vanderbilt in RPI too.

    I'm just mad at RPI because in my mind you beat a top 15 team it should go up more than one spot.

    Vanderbilt ahead of us in RPI should tell you right there how much of a joke it is. That is not a good Vandy team.

    We currently have awful losses to Morehead State and Marist, a bad loss to FIU, 2 losses to a really bad UGA team and 2 losses to a pretty bad Oregon team. We should easily have, at a minimum, 3 or 4 wins in that stretch of 7 games where we shit the bed. We have no one to blame but ourselves for our RPI being where it is. You can't cheat a mathematical formula, or be cheated by it. We go 3-4 instead of 0-7 in the games mentioned above, and it's a non-issue.

    Oregon and Georgia are both top 100 RPI teams that we played on the road. We also have more top 50 RPI wins than most people.

    The top 50 wins are fools gold. We have 15 Top 50 wins, but 11 of those are teams 31-50. Just 4 against the top 30 and one series win against a top 30 team. That is another reason we are where we are in the RPI. We haven't beaten many of the upper echelon teams.

    But, we are a rock solid 2-seed and I still think that is a hell of an accomplishment for this team.
