It's this year going to be better to beat #73 on the road than it is to beat #32 at home. I see people asking Lunardi questions on Twitter using RPI top 50 records.

How so? I could see if the opponents were within 5 or 10 points but beating a team that is 40 points higher should earn more credit.

Look at my previous email where the Tiers are explained.

That list doesn't explain the tiers at all. Nor does the website warrennolan.com

You can add all the Ross Perot charts and multipliers you want, I still say beating a team with at home with a 32 RPI is a much better win than beating a team on the road with a 40 point lower RPI. I guess that's why I am not on the selection committee.

They're making much more of a focus on what you do away from home. Which makes sense to large degree because you can't play at home in the tournament.

It is a good thing, IMHO - too many P6 teams only play home OOC (with a neutral site sprinkled in) and won't play true road games. Anything to get more OOC road games is better for the sport
