mustache eagle 2,397 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 How do you beat the team ahead of you 2/3 away and move the wrong way. I assume score? The bigger loss weighs more than 2 close wins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Probably the fact that LSU lost to AU moved them down a few notches...which reduced AU's ranking. AND LSU lost a couple to Mizzou before AU played them....all in all, just a minor re-shuffle. Won't affect our opportunities for the tournament.

AU64 10,122 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 IF this thing is recalculated each week based on the entire schedule, a team's RPI can probably be affected by what some previous opponent has been doing.... as much as by it's own results. ....some earlier wins not looking quite as good now?

Mikey 16,565 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 IF this thing is recalculated each week based on the entire schedule, a team's RPI can probably be affected by what some previous opponent has been doing.... as much as by it's own results. ....some earlier wins not looking quite as good now? I believe that's correct. Much like the old BCS football calculations, if opponents of previous opponents drop a few games, your team can go lower in spite of impressive wins. It's probably not a common occurrence but obviously it can happen. I don't think it matters much to us right now. Win a few in the tournament and our hat will be in the ring to host a regional.
