wanna see even worse... check out baseball. Yes it is only the first couple of weeks but even in relation to each other it makes no sense.


Example: in state school winthrop.

They have swept what is considered RPI 134
Lost 2 out of 3 to what is considered RPI 100
and lost to what is considered RPI 38.

However even with that record their RPI is 26. How does that work? Again I can see why with limited data that the RPI wouldn't necessarily correlate to actual ability, but even in relation to one another it makes no sense.

No 15 loss team has ever made the tournament, so they're done if they dont win the SECT probably.

Any chance Belmont can still become a top 50 win, last I checked they were close.

In RPI Belmont is 57, KenPom has them at 83. The remaining schedule won't help that number either. The best they can beat in their conference tourney is 155, so I'd say probably no.

ACC getting 10 is ridiculous. There aren't 10 worthy teams in one league.

Yeah every time the Big 10 or ACC gets like 10 bids they have 7 or 8 lose in the first round.

Georgia goes down on Lunardi's list to next four out. Arkansas game might push us in.
