And they didn’t just beat a nobody. They beat #23 Houston

Up to #29 in the RPI after the good night from Memphis, Lipscomb and UTA.
Need a BYU win to finish it off.

Got Blown out 2 times this week and moved up 5 spots in the RPI.

Every little bit counts especially if we get stuck at 18 wins. Lipscomb,BYU, and Memphis being in the top 100 would help even if it isnt likely.

They are actually way better than I thought they'd be.

I'd just like to remind you that you were pumping the Mercer, Lipscomb, BYU and UTAR
To be fair, everyone was pumping that UTA team.

I seriously thought Memphis could end up with a .500 or worse overall record. They’ve played way above their talent

Thier last 3 games are against Uconn, East Carolina, and South Florida. All 3 are awful so they SHOULD be 20-11 going into the AAC tourney.

LOL we didn't get blown out at Kentucky

Memphis and BYU are better wins now than people realize. We tested ourselves and didn't go the easy route like a few teams did this year.

Loss by 10....i mean the last 5 mins we got blown out

RPI doesn't factor in score nor opponent RPI rank

They are better than the standard buy games, but they aren't "good" wins. If a team is on the NIT bubble, not even sniffing NCAAT, that isn't a quality win
BYU is only 10-6 in a 2 bid league while Memphis is 8-7 in a 2 maybe 3 bid league.
Obviously they are both much better than playing some SWAC team at home, but you don't move up seeding lines winning those games because you'd expect it from any NCAAT team

They're fine but they are buffer wins. Neither will make the NCAAT unless they win their league.
Still better than beating Hampton or Lamar.

BYU May have a good record, but like a week or two ago I saw the NIT bracketology and BYU was in it and wasn’t even a high seed. Thats not a good win.....not a bad one either

I get a kick out of this. I don't know why, but I've never liked UConn. Maybe it's from the '04 elite 8 loss. I was only 8 then though, so too young to really remember anything about that game.

Gosh that 2004 UConn team was a machine. They just toyed with us.
