1.5 point underdog at home and looks like Tenn has 2 players we have to find a way to stop.

My bad, you are right. RPI 61 against RPI 12. Apparently Vegas does not look too closely at RPI.

They don't look at it at all, because it pretty much sucks.

Yep, the RPI formula really needs to be revisited. The factors make sense but the weighting of the factors are highly questionable. Getting such a huge bump just for playing someone, even if you get stomped in the mud, makes the forumula very suspect IMO.

The quick chart at the bottom, plus it being at state = 1.5 line.
