ESPN’s BPI “hates” the Tigers

Yes, it’s just a computer model. Yes, it’s just a pre-season computer model. Yes, it means absolutely nothing. But, number 134???

Makes sense.. two of the key factors for the model are returning production snd the coaches previous success.. we have neither. We wont be ranked well in any computer model, our situation is sn outlier and you dont break the model to catch outliers

No doubt about all that, but it is still ridiculous. Kenpom has the same type of issues and I had no complaint with Kenpom having us around 50. Any formula that ends with us being ranked in the 100s needs serious rework.

Jesus. Yeah they can go ahead and retire that one. Clearly had too much bias for preseason rank.

yep, both UTK and Mississippi St are ahead of us... that is as broken as a ranking service can be.

It's not just the Tigers.

It's a big club and lots of teams, leagues aren't in it to semi-quote George Carlin.
