I understand the basic math involved in computing RPI and I understand, because of that model that Florida, Kentucky, and Texas are top 5 teams. But really?

This will get sorted out during the tournament. Let's hope we hang onto a top 4 seed and can play four games in Rec Hall.

I thought the MAC gets an AQ for winning the conference? Or, is this not that?
EDIT: I thought TAMU was eliminated from tournament eligibility due to losing record?

I thought the MAC gets an AQ for winning the conference? Or, is this not that?
EDIT: I thought TAMU was eliminated from tournament eligibility due to losing record?

Travler just listed the current top 64 RPI. Most of the teams in that list below 40 will not make it unless they win their conference. All 32 Conferences get 1 AQ each for winning conference. There are 22 conference that have a tournament and 10 that don't. MAC has a tournament on 16-19 Nov on ESPN3 (winner gets the AQ). You are correct, Texas A&M has been eliminated from post season because of their not being able to reach .500 for the season. When I list RPI updates this coming weekend you will see teams starting at #64 start to drop below the cutoff line for post season.

I understand the basic math involved in computing RPI and I understand, because of that model that Florida, Kentucky, and Texas are top 5 teams. But really?

This will get sorted out during the tournament. Let's hope we hang onto a top 4 seed and can play four games in Rec Hall.

My guess right now based on the 1 Nov ranking given by the committee and losses by MN and Stanford is :1.Penn State, 2. Nebraska, 3. Florida and battle for 4th will be between Stanford, Minnesota and Texas. I agree, I wouldn't put Texas or Florida in the mix. My personal picks would be 1. Penn State, 2 Nebraska, 3 Minnesota, 4. Stanford (as selected by committee on 1 Nov).

Hey psumaui, any chance we'll lose our #1 RPI ranking to Florida next Monday?

From your last rankings:
1 Penn State BIG10 0.7280 25-1
2 Florida SEC 0.7258 22-1

I'm just thinking that another week of having to play low RPI opponents is going to catch up to us at some point.

I mentioned that possibility in my last RPI results on Sunday night. It's very possible because of SOS of Penn State vs Florida. If it does happen, Penn State should regain 1st place if they win both of their matches in final weekend because of same reason of SOS in Penn State's favor. It could come down to opponents and opponents opponents results for both Penn State and Florida and if enough of them win on Penn State's side, Penn State could still maintain their #1 position on Sunday night. Too many unknowns right now to know for sure. Either way, if Penn State wins out there is no way the committee will select Florida over Penn State for #1 seed. When they made the rankings on 1 Nov, they said that selecting Penn State for #1 was easy. It was the next 3 positions that they had problems with deciding who to put there.

As [that great WVB expert] Donald Rumsfeld said, "...as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tend to be the difficult ones."

Other than that, I think we know exactly where we'll stand next Monday.

so, for the remaining matches, only PSU has 2 top-20 teams to play, and they are the highest ranked teams of the top 20 that will play the top 10. That has to be good for RPI.

TX has 1 top 20
MN has PSU
Stan has 1 top 20

thanks PSUM!

Yea, if Penn State wins both matches they get double bonus points for both matches by winning against top 25 teams but still have to see how their opponents do which is 50% of their RPI score. It's going to be close either way. Still believe if Penn State wins out they get #1 seed whether their RPI is #1 or #2. Beating the now PAC 12 conference champion twice has to have a huge amount of weight on the committees selections.
