"You don't understand RPI" to the guy who built his own RPI workbook in Excel and is running hypothetical scenarios. I kinda think I'm getting...

Why are we worried about Mershon transferring? Is he homesick?

Sure, or we could have not scheduled games against teams we knew would hurt our RPI and replaced them with teams that project into the 175-200 range,...

Agree that it's a terrible metric. It is not very predictive.
Disagree that it's not transparent. Anyone can build their own model to "check" the...

If we had gone 25-0 in the non-conference instead of 19-6, I have our RPI at #9.
Or if we hadn't scheduled Mt. St. Mary's, North Alabama, or...

Again ... I'm not saying you have to know exactly where someone's RPI is going to be every year. But yes, you can make a really good guess if...

Another fact. If instead of Mt. St. Mary's (who we knew beforehand would likely have an RPI worse than 250, probably closer to 300 and would hurt our...

The only way this team hosts is that we make a deep run in Hoover, enough to get our RPI back into the teens, and then we get lucky and the selection...

If Alcorn State usually had an RPI in the 150 range and just randomly was worse than 300 this year, I wouldn't blame anyone for scheduling them, and...

I certainly never claimed we have the "75th type of schedule." The numbers are what they are. We could have had an RPI in the mid-teens even at...

Our RPI falls to 24 with a loss (give or take what other teams do). We have to win today just to be on the hosting bubble.

Yeah, but if we're one of the top 2 seeds, we likely get sent to the #14 - #16 regional anyway.

Just winning 2 next weekend gets us to only 17-13, which is not going to be good enough to host. We need to win all 3 to feel good about our chances.
