Message: [QUOTE="SimpleDawg, post: 3072264, member: 9267"] Based on the guidelines that you use, what justifies UConn as a #1 seed then? They have that win over Notre Dame, but pretty much nobody else after that. Unless you're counting 3 wins over UCF as quality wins. I know this is a message board and assuming that everyone here loves those RPI numbers, I can use those same numbers too. We're #40 in SOS, UConn is #41. Identical wins and losses. They have no bad loss, while we have that one against Missouri. But we collected better wins overall. There's pluses and minuses in favor of both. Say I concede Louisville should be ahead of us. If we go by those same RPI/SOS numbers, they probably should be ahead of UConn too. And UConn and Mississippi State might also be a borderline case. And please don't think I'm fighting you on purpose, I'm just trying understand how people are evaluating this because this feels like a little bit of heat against Mississippi State on a day where we go 18-1 in the SEC for the 2nd straight year. Like I said, their arguments for Louisville being over us is logical, but if we use those same arguments, then they should be over UConn too. Again, outside of UConn's win over Notre Dame, Louisville has way more better wins than UConn overall. .... [/QUOTE]
