Those 15 to 20 points per game would help.We would be ranked 15th if we dispatched Calhoun.
Yes we absolutely do. We lost by a combined 5 points to the #13 and 14 teams in the country. Zona being ranked is a joke, they lost to PC and went to OT against winless Santa ClaraThat's fair, we don't deserve to be ranked.
Being ranked 18th and losing two games, one to an unranked team, usually means your out of the top 25. Syracuse being much better than anticipated saved UConn from being lower.
If UConn took Michigan's path - lost to Michigan, beat Charlotte, and then beat Texas.... So 2-1 (instead of 1-2). . UConn would probably still be ranked in the top 25.
Michigan is a better win right now than Texas is. Also, you get a nice bump in SOS playing Michigan, Syracuse, Gonzaga versus playing Michigan, Charlotte, Texas.True, but would our overall resume be better?
The Charlotte win means nothing, so would you rather
Michigan - W
Syracuse - L
Gonzaga - L
or
Michigan - L
Texas - W
Looks about even, I guess.

We need some NBA talent, stat.
Cruise by SHU and sit back and wait for some losses in the lower half of the top 25 and we'll be right back in it next week to face Maryland.

When it comes to RPI, is your resume based on the RPI of the team you played the day you played them or at the end of the season? For example I checked the Daily RPI from before the Gonzaga game and Gonzaga's was 103 or something like that. I strongly believe their RPI would be higher at the end of the season. So was our loss a loss to a RPI 100+ team or will it be considered whatever the RPI is at the end of the season?
Gotcha that is what I thought but I wasn't sure. Thank you for the clarification.It's every team's full season. So, as teams we play also play their seasons out it can move our RPI between games too.
LOL Must have been Mike Brey who gave Monmouth a vote.
