The reason for this is because East Carolina beat RPI 13 North Carolina and it bumped us down for now. If we do well this weekend we will probably jump back ahead of them if I had to guess.
So looking at the rest of our schedule we have RPI 18 Ole Miss on the road and that is a big series for us because we do well we can possibly have a .500 or better road record as well as lock up more top 50 and likely top 25 wins for our resume'.
One win essentially locks up a Regional host for us with our resume and we honestly may have enough even with a .500 SEC record because of our quality OOC wins. Two wins puts us on the National Seed bubble. A sweep puts us on the right side of the National Seed bubble. Doing well should also get our SOS in the top 20 easily.
La Tech is similar resume' wise to Nebraska. They are in the low 40's and playing the rest of their games on the road should help their RPI some. But they are also playing bad RPI games other than us so they could still really go either way between Q1 and Q2 at this point.
South Carolina lost to a bad Furman team and they are now 24-24 and plummeting in RPI. They're at RPI 89 but they do have RPI 40 Kentucky and RPI for MSU which probably will keep them in Q2 but they do have South Carolina- Upstate and a loss there could very well land them in Q3. It would be nice for us if they found a way to take a game or two from UK this weekend. We really need to sweep them to minimize damage probably.
