Message: [QUOTE="ocoandasoc, post: 3082602, member: 3032"] Here's a rundown on the seven teams -- W/L overall and conference, RPI, SOS, and Power Rating numbers and rank. UCF 26-6 15-4 RPI .6314 (#15) SOS .5634 (#49) PR 79.22 (#15) Ohio 27-5 14-4 RPI .6020 (#34) SOS .5290 (#90) PR: 77.90 (#21) Wins: Purdue, Buffalo Indiana 20-12 9-11 RPI: .5818 (#47) SOS .5703 (#41) PR: 71.16 (#61) Wins: UCLA, SoDak, Iowa Auburn 21-9 10-8 RPI: .5795 (#50) SOS .5454 (#71) PR: 72.69 (#48) Wins: Mizzou, LSU TCU 20 -10 10 -9 RPI: .5740 (#57) SOS .5500 (#64) PR: 71.44 (#59) Wins: WV, Iowa St. Tenn 19 -12 8-10 RPI .5735 (#59) SOS .5752 (#35) PR: 70.82 (#70) Wins: Texas, Missouri Arkansas 20-14 9-11 RPI: .5685 (#67) SOS .5670 (#45) PR: 69.19 (#80) Wins: Tex A&M, TN, SC No matter which criteria you use, UCF comes out in the top 4. (Except maybe "good wins.") If it turns out to be UCF, Indiana, Auburn and Tenn, Creme and Lobo will have hit it right on the head. You have to wonder how closely ESPN and the NCAA Committee work together. And is this the first time they've revealed officially the names of the teams on the bubble? With Tenn in the mix, are they just trying to build the ratings for the selection show? Arkansas has no shot. They couldn't take them without taking Tenn and Auburn and that would be SEC overload for a lot of folks. You can make a pretty good case for any of the others. But the Committee will do what it always does at this point -- make a subjective decision and then figure out how to objectively justify it. (Wait... maybe they could justify taking Arkansas because they "peaked at the end of the season." (LOL, they lost 9 of their last 13 games!) [/QUOTE]
