Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 2012233, member: 1969"] That is an over exaggeration. 13-5 projects to an RPI of 41, with at least 5 top 50 wins in conference alone . That is not a bare minimum to make the tournament. 12-6 would be an RPI of 54 with at at least 4 projected top 50 wins in conference. 11-7 in my view is the walking the line number -- one good win in the ACC tournament above that and IMO it is enough. The ACC currently has 9 teams projected in the top 50 RPI and 12 teams other than Syracuse projected in the RPI top 70. It's a very deep and top heavy conference. It's better than last year. (at top and in terms of depth) It's not just the big 4 that will generate top 50 win opportunities. Miami, Wake Forest, Clemson, Florida St and Notre Dame are also projected top 50 opponents. If some of them fall out of the top 50, they will be replaced by Pitt, Virginia Tech or NC St. 11 wins or more inherently means you need to win a fair share of top 50 games. [/QUOTE]
