Minnesota_husker Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Matt just dropped a whole boat load of facts on why RPI and being so focused on teams "paper numbers" is silly. I am not saying it shouldnt be a factor, but we need to use our eye balls and also understand what teams looked like when you played them. Nebraska played a top 15 Minnesota team that was healthy and still had all there players yet that win now means nothing. RPI is a faulty stat. 3 Quote Link to comment

Cheer Tennessee, Vandy, Saint Joesephs, Florida at 6:00. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Kansas State and St. Bonaventure and Boise State are playing as well. Quote Link to comment

Is that based on future matchups? They're predicted as an 11 seed right now. TCU is predicted as 6. 1 Quote Link to comment

TCU's only non con loss was to Vanderbilt, which isn't great, but it's only one. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hopefully Baylor loses tonight Quote Link to comment
HS_Coach_C Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Pretty good so far. Mississippi State didn't come close to the big win they needed. Alabama didn't come close to getting their lock. Rhode island got crushed by a bad team, but their RPI was 8 before tonight. They'll likely get in. Missouri got pushed by Vandy but avoided the bad loss. Quote Link to comment
The Murphinator Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Oklahoma still sucks. 6 Quote Link to comment
