re: Hog Basketball RPI, Bracketology, and ITS ALL DOWN...BUT NOT OUT!

The problem or difference today is the committee loves to stack the deck against teams or intentionally pair teams who have trouble matching up with other teams. Back through the 90s they basically ranked you and filled the ladder from there.

Wichita state had no chance of advancing far a few years ago when the committee bracketed them with strong teams round after round possibilities because they played a weak schedule, they even under ranked badly the Kentucky team that beat them so they would have to prove the deserved to make it to the final four.
