It does not include the tourney because you cannot predict who will play who and how many games are left.

I said win the west Bc of we sweep that is gaurenteed but we need Florida to lose once at LSU and OM to beat A&M to win the SEC outright
and all of that has what exactly to do with rpi?

Arkansas is awful and won't do anything to help State's RPI.
It doesn't mean State won't be a national seed.

No way to meet threshold with a sweep this week and 3 of 4 wins in the tournament against teams with higher rpi's? That's nonsense

Regular season only. The site is very good actually.

Nonsense - spoken or written words that have no meaning
It means where you will finish in the regular season. So not nonsense. Again you just don't like the info. It is a site run by a State person.

So you don't think RPI is a relevant stat?

No it isnt.

Nope. We get it. You are backtracking now and trying to dismiss something you didnt understand initially. It's ok to just admit you were wrong though.

That is a live snapshot. The one posted is a predictor of what the snapshot will look like next week. Unless you are saying the RPI as of May 16th is the only one that matters.

At this point its not worth arguing. You're mad because state isn't going to finish in the top 8 at the end of the regular season while Ole Miss is. Good day.
