That's probably because Arkansas played LSU 5 times this season...
and lost 4 of those games

4 of 5 against Ark should override some computer generated ranking

I guess the RPI doesn’t consider the mental part of the game.

It did. We have a national championship trophy.

It’s a rating not a ranking.

It’s amazing how many people struggle with these concepts across all sports.

The baseball publications do a better job than the NCAA Tournament in seeding teams.

The selection process is agenda driven and doesn’t adequately balance levels of competition over the teams selected.

The selection process needs to be scrapped and an alternative composite of accumulative rankings employed.

The NCAA Committee needs a collective enema.

How many top seeds were in the tournament despite home field advantage! Case closed it’s shitty product

No it’s not. You just don’t understand that in baseball the better team loses A LOT.

What is your better solution?


There are computer rating systems available that are theoretically more sound and produce more accurate results.

I wouldn’t put too much stock into the Pear kid. Huge Arky guy.

NET rankings aren’t the greatest to go by also. FYI.

You just don't understand the purpose of RPI. It isn't to crown a champion. The 2 LR games are what hurt our RPI

So LSU beats them 4 of 5 games. ROI is retarded.

This is hilarious, and pronably makes the hogs feel that much worse honestly. Great tool for seeding teams, not much after that.
