i have zero problem withe formulation. In a tourney that must select from 300+ DI teams this is a necessary evil to ensure that every team with a nice record against shithole competition doesn't make it to the dance. I also like that in theory it should reward fans with interesting OOC matchups.

What about Big East teams that have inflated RPIs from getting to play so many in conference games again high rated teams?

I don't have a problem using a computer formula to weight SOS, just make it a better formula that isn't oversimplified. Football does it.
