however, itta make-a noah sense when #12/14/15 are ahead of us at this point....

this is where the algorithm is flawed and weighted incorrectly.....that's just ******* stupid....

we just have to keep pounding the table with wins.....

Those schools have played killer schedules (unlike our OOC consisting of NE/Midwest private schools).

RPI needs to be tweaked though. Home losses/road wins are weighted too heavily. Don't like that we can win 2/3 at home vs a top 60 opponent and our RPI stays basically neutral.

The all important top 50 win also needs to be somewhat devalued. The fact that a home series win over #50 is more valuable than a road series win over #51 is ridiculous.

..I thought the NCAA attempted to adjust all of that stuff a few years ago based on the fact that most teams play more games at home than away...a quick re-check shows we play 30 Home games this year and 22 away...4 neutral site games.......you know more about that stuff than I do beag.
