And you ignore the biggest reason on why it is so important. The Top 50 RPI teams are what makes up the tourney bracket. It is essentially playing against other tourney teams during your season and you are judged on that performance.

Stop ignoring the facts. You're starting to come off as ignorant. This is the way it has been for years. This just didn't start happening yesterday.

. Gonzaga is a better and more talented team than Princeton

Princeton is in the NIT. They didn't win their league.
Gonzaga is in the NCAA's.

Beating either one of those teams has the same value. Both top 50 wins. Princeton is in too weak of a league to get a bid without winning their conference. They also do not have a conference tourney, which puts them at a disadvantage.

What is Tulsa record against teams in tourney

---

That puts Tulsa at a disadvantage because you cannot include RPI 13 SMU as they are banned from post season play this season.
Counting SMU...Tulsa is 6-6 against tourney teams. Again, goes back to a bigger sample size. This is why top 50 wins are so important.
