I love KenPom, but we are getting to a point where the RPI is a meaningful tool. This is not because it is necessarily good, but because it is settling and wins/losses won't have nearly as much shift because there is lots of data and the NCAA still loves the frickin RPI for whatever reason
You do realize KenPom cares less about wins/losses than RPI does right? Look at Arkansas on KenPom. Bama has a much better record on a harder SOS and we're 30+ spots behind them on KenPom. It literally is the worst system out there to go by.

KenPom doesn't care at all about wins and losses.

Eh, I don't agree. KenPom's rankings are generally pretty dang accurate at year-end. Honestly, 80th is probably about where Alabama should be in terms of "how good is this basketball team". Arkansas will drop as more numbers flow in.

LSU is 4-2 vs teams with a better RPI than us... Proving how ridiculous it can be...
I will say LSU's conference only RPI is 9th in NCAA.

But only 9-5 vs teams with a worse RPI, showing how correct it can be

10th? No.
What? Yes, LSU has the 10th ranked conference RPI right now. At least I believe they do if I'm reading it correctly.

But if we're talking about how good teams really are... There's no better system.
Arkansas is a better team than Alabama.
