UTEP RPI will probably dip into the 100's after this loss tonight.
They were going to drop after a home loss on Wednesday anyway.
rpiforecast has been horrible today. I know that the realtimerpi site shows them winning by 2 vs UAB, and losing by 3 to USM. Most likely it will be the other way around. This morning rpiforecast had them finishing the regular season 19-11 with an RPI of 81.5, so most likely they will be 18-12 with a loss to UAB and a win vs USM. Perhaps they will still stay in the top 100 even with a loss at home to you guys.

However, I still believe that UAB has to win the CUSA tourney to get an at large bid. Currently the realtime RPI has UAB at 44:

Code:
40   Georgetown  15-12  0.5953
41   Creighton  v25-6   0.5950
42   Florida     21-7   0.5938
43   Ohio St.    18-9   0.5938
44   UAB         20-9   0.5929
45   Miami (FL)  16-10  0.5888
Ummm... if we win the CUSA tourney then we get an autobid... and *Memphis* gets an at large bid.

Just sayin'.
Yep. I confuse autobid and at large bid as much as I confuse March and April. For some reason my brain is wired to think April comes before March.

You guys have done an excellent job of winning lately. It's too bad that the rest of CUSA hasn't helped you out more by putting more teams solidly in the top 100. Houston is the team that really gets my goat by having an OOC SOS before CUSA play started of about 295. When your SOS goes up about 150 point AFTER you start playing in CUSA, you know something is wrong with your scheduling.
Houston and Tulsa are two I'd like to have back.

Mine too. I think I just want March and May to be back to back for the sake of alphabetical order.
I really want a rematch against Tulsa. I'm still upset about that loss.
UAB RPI actually improved to 42 after the ECU win last night. Arizona RPI is at 48 and UTEP is at 89 so all in all good news.
