Tennessee- RPI 33, SOS 2

Vs. RPI top 25 3-5
Vs. Rpi top 50 5-6
Vs. RPI top 100 10-9


Alabama- RPI 77, SOS 150

VS. RPI top 25 1-2
Vs RPI top 50 2-2
Vs. RPI top 100 3-4



See the difference yet. Tennessee is no lock but they are in better shape than Alabama.

Bama fans might poison Mr. Palm.I mean a palm is a type of tree right?

Also RPI is a poor indicator of team strength.

See this article. The RPI Myth. It's a little dated but the main points hold true. Warning: long read.

UT and Bama are opposites this year. UT has great OOC wins while Bama has notable OOC losses. Bama has a great conference record while UT has struggled to a .500 mark in conference.

UT and UGA. UGA doesn't even have an impressive win on their resume.


At least UT has beaten a few good teams, though they've been trending down the past couple of weeks.
