Stephen While I agree and they are in my bracket but losses to NC State (2 times) and Clemson speak volumes of the type of team that will show up. You can see...
I don't think it is fair to say that BC's facilities are inferior because of the size to the MCI Cetner, Continental Arena and MSG. Have you been to a G'Town,...
After looking at the Longhorns resume, several issues jump out at me. First, ZERO quality road wins. Not good. Second, TWO wins vs. RPI top 50. Not great. ...
I have to agree. Texas has managed to slink through a poor season in a all right Big 12. But come conference tournament time , they have what looks like a...
They don't completely ignore everything from before, but it does get less weight. _____ From: Kartik Krishnaiyer [mailto:kkfla737@...] Sent: Tuesday,...
Thanks for that clarification. Speaking of injuries I was at the Miami-Ga Tech game the other day and while Tech gutted out a win (or actually Miami gave away...
Wait a minute here ... when did the Big 12 get shifted down? Last I checked they were third in Conference RPI. Their conference leader was claiming a #1 seed....
It spite of the myriad of excuses you use to defend Texas, you still can't reasonably believe they look like a tournament team! Their resume is garbage and the...
After listening to the talking heads from the "World-Wide Leader" over the past couple of weeks, I get the sense that since they don't like the results that...
Except Elder is a better 3FG shooter than Bynum (by about 50 percentage points) and Tech desperately needs some outside shooting. I thought Anthony Morrow...
How can Kansas lose three in a row and still be 1 in the RPI? Doesen't make sense ... __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday! ...
First, did you even read my note? It didn't defend Texas at all, it said why they were struggling so badly this season. It was a note about the Big XII and...
Yes the RPI needs to be tweaked next year but for Jay Bilas and others to call it "irrelevant" and a "joke" is IMO pretty foolish. Road wins are an accurate...
The 20 win plateau doesn't mean squat...If you have 20 wins against slop and only home W's, then you are going to be very dissappointed on selection...
With Kansas and Gonzaga on their schedule I am not sure how you can say Ga Tech did not challenge themselves. Michigan (prior to their Horton problems) and Air...
You make my case-Why would anybody put value in a formula that continues to place a team at the top when it loses three games in a row? What does it have to ...
... It doesn't make sense if you assume the RPI is a measure of team strength. If you look at the way the RPI is calculated, the RPI is much more about WHO...
... Play a weaker schedule. It doesn't matter, though - well, not ultimately, since the tourney is what really counts. ... [This E-mail was scanned for...
I wouldn't say irrelevant, but it sure doesn't make sense. Two big ten bubble teams, Minn and Indiana, have RPI rankings that are about 20 - 30 points apart in...
Well, I think the RPI is a joke, this year more than ever. I think if you looked objectively at a few teams and their schedule you would see that it isn't...
Can anybody explain why they changed the RPI formula. I was not even aware of any change untill Bilas was going over teams rank this year compared to last...
see here's the thing with the RPI. It can't be taken very seriously, because it is obviously so flawed. The thing is that no sport can try and rely completely...
From a more practical perspective, we should all be confident that the RPI has been very relevant to date. And I'm looking forward to seeing the fate of...
Has the bubble finally burst for the Fading Irish? Nobody on ESPN has the guts to call out the Notre Dame non-conference schedule!!! Will somebody please call...
Funny ... all suddenly became very quiet today about the Longhorns and the Big 12. tripster4484 <tripster4484@...> wrote: Has the bubble finally burst...
