RPI is confusing.

After we beat Oregon today, we stick at 65 in RPI. They move from 35 to 34.

RPI does weird things this early in the year. Lots of wild swings. I'd wait until late March/early April.

We've beat them 19-7 combined in 2 games and they're 31 spots better than us. Makes perfect sense to me**

Winning at home doesn't mean ****. Going on the road and playing, even losing to a ranked team moves you up. It's a joke at this point in the year.

I just looked at it again and we did move up to 56. I guess I checked it a little too quickly after our game.

either way, I think the formula used for winning at home and winning on the road is out of whack. Especially for baseball

It is. But dont look this early. Thjnk about it. If someone beats a team thats 9-1 thats beating a team with a 90% win perc for 50% of your formula. No one is going to finish with that win perc. Just too early

We gotta pay for that tie.

It will all work out.

Yeah. Wait until about half way through conference play. P5 teams will begin to separate themselves.

It is. True home field advantage can be determined easy enough on a case by case basis. This is one thing Boyd's ISR attempts to accomplish...
