NCSU Lock - No, NCSU - Should be in - Yes, NCSU last four out - highly doubtful
Too many get stuck on the RPI and forgets the committee is just like the CFP committee. There is an eye test and bias. Consideration of team missing a player, NCSU PG was out for 7 games.
LAST 12 8-4
RPI TOP 25 4-4
TOP 50 6-5
TOP 100 10-9

Again, this is the one difference I see between the CFP and Basketball. CFP does not care about the other rankings but I think NCAA does look at the Bball rankings. I think it should go to more of CFP ranking for at-larges and ignore the old polls. But I will put the old metric in anyway. Five top 25 wins
Wins again Wins again #2 Arizon (N), #2 Duke (H), #19 Miami (H), #19 UNC (A) and #25 FSU (H)
I thought single digit see was two high due to weak SOS and bad losses to Northern Iowa and GT. I think 10-12 would happen. I don't think there are enough bubble poppers to but them in danger, but enough left to put them into last four in.
I do imagine there will be a strong SOS in Keatts 2ndy year.
