Boyd's World RPI Needs Report: Update on 5/14 *see notes in OP
Posted on 5/10/17 at 8:58 am
Posted on 5/10/17 at 8:58 am
Some Notes:
- This assumes all opponents maintain their win/loss percentage
- Does not include conference tournaments
- Top 8 is not necessary for national seeding
RPI of remaining opponents:
Northwestern State - 231
Miss State - 19
ETA on 5/13/17: Updated report suggests that LSU has a chance if they win out.
ETA2 on 5/14/17: LINK Back to having no chance.

How about after we lose to Northwestern St?

It seems that because of them, we have to win at least 6 games to finish in the top 16.

Is there a way to see what the effect would be if we replaced one Army win with an additional Air Force win, and added a San Diego game (win or loss)?
I know the La Col game isn't counted at all, that's why I say to just add the USD game.
ETA: Air Force is at 207 (warren Nolan) and Army at 231, so probably no real change there. But Air Force has better opponents, so there could be.
San Deigo is the number 50 RPI team.

Hope for a rainout?

With them all being home games, I don't think the AirForce/Army switch would mean much. San Diego would help some but maybe a spot. Breaking down our OOC:
Wins (RPI):
Air Force - 210
Army (2 games)- 236
Hofstra - 272
Maryland (3 games)- 24
Baylor - 15
Nicholls - 161
Wichita St (3 games)- 141
SELU - 35
Grambling - 278
ULL - 52
Lamar - 122
Losses (RPI):
UNO (2 games) - 136
TCU - 6
TTU - 3
McNeese - 43
Tulane (2 games) - 84
USA - 45

We're gonna lose to Northwestern State, which will only be a continuance of our downfall in the RPI.

Does the SEC tournament apply to this?
Posted on 5/10/17 at 9:26 am to lsusportsman2
Why do you assume we will lose to them?

what if we win out including the sec tourney?
Posted on 5/10/17 at 9:35 am to Topwater Trout
quote:Depends on the other teams and who we play. No bonus for neutral site games. It's still unlikely at this point especially considering this doesn't include last night's loss.

If we win sec west and sec tourney we will be a super host...regardless if we have a top 8 rpi

you're forgetting we still have a midweek game against a 'lesser opponent'....
Posted on 5/10/17 at 9:40 am to Topwater Trout

If we don't get a super regional I just hope we don't have to go west if we win our regional

Don't even worry about this scenario, it ain't happening.

CPM usually plays to win SEC Tournament (even when other teams may not).
Posted on 5/10/17 at 10:28 am to ell_13
I certainly hope this info finds its way to the players and coaches; that dicking around with yet another mid-week opponent may have cost them hosting a super regional. Hopefully this will instill a stronger sense of immediacy and focus for the future.
The important thing is hosting a regional. Winning a super regional even at home this year with this team is a tall, tall order anyway.
