Oh, and before you get you stat book out comparing records of the above schools just remember TCU beating BYU, Utah, Houston, Air Force, Boise St and Tulsa is not equal to UT beating Oklahoma, A&M, Okla St, Nebraska, Texas Tech, and Colorado!
Correct. Beating BYU/Utah/UH/AFA/BSU/Tulsa is harder than beating OU/A&M/OSU/NU/TT/CU. The former group is collectively better than the latter group.

I know you love the RPI, but you can't go purely on win pct. Can you share your method for getting those values?
Sure.

Add these:

winning percentage divided by 2
opponents' winning percentage divided by 3
opponents' opponents' winning percentage divided by 6

There's a complicated quality win portion put into it, but the three factors above account for over 90% of the formula, which can be found here.
