The pandemic has put a monkey wrench in the RPI

I’m going to be very curious how they use it this year. Case in point the consensus #1 team OU just recently got into the top 10 (#7 last week) and can only improve it with OK St coming up. No way they get all the way to #1. I may not like OU but if they are not the #1 seed, the entire committee will need to have their heads checked.

RPI is just one component. It’s a road map, not a GPS.

If Tech wins the ACCSBT, they're be 1 of the 16 teams hosting. JMHO. ** -- Old Line Hokie 05/03/2021 3:31PM

I totally agree -- VT4Natty 05/04/2021 09:20AM

I believe it will be determined before that. -- RJHokie 05/03/2021 6:46PM

That’s why they announced the top 20 last week, to plan… -- VTsportscaster 05/04/2021 07:51AM
