When can we stop basing the NCAAT on RPI?
Like I said, KENPOM or STFU. Far better predictor of the rest of the season than straight RPI.
If you look at just RPI, you fail to see the whole picture. You have to also look at:
Strength of Schedule
Quality wins
Bad losses (especially to 101+ RPI teams AT HOME)
Last 10 games
Conference strength

I think Kenpom is becoming more and more of a universally accepted indicator, although the committee will never admit it. Vegas cappers love Kenpom and DGAF about RPI for the most part.
The RPI is just terrible this year, and it's been trending that way for years now. You can't tell me La Salle is 7 seed, but RPI does.
