System comparison
How is BPI different than RPI or other advanced rating systems like Kenpom.com and the Sagarin ratings? Here is how the included elements compare to other systems.

Here are the leading teams:
Created by the ESPN Stats & Information group, the College Basketball Power Index (BPI) is a team rating that accounts for all team scores in every Division I game, whether they were at home, on the road, or on a neutral court, whether they won, the pace of the game, the strength of their opponent, and whether any of their top five players (by minutes per game) was missing.
1 Kentucky SEC 24-1 91.4 18.9 90
2 Syracuse Big East 24-1 90.1 17.7 57
3 Ohio State Big Ten 21-3 90.0 17.7 84
4 Michigan State Big Ten 18-5 87.4 15.6 16
5 Kansas Big 12 19-5 86.8 15.1 10
6 Duke ACC 20-4 85.5 14.2 1
7 North Carolina ACC 20-4 85.3 14.1 62
8 Florida SEC 19-5 83.7 13.2 51
9 Missouri Big 12 22-2 83.7 13.1 86
10 Baylor Big 12 20-3 82.8 12.6 17
Another rating system that demonstrates 'Cuse is playing very well. What do you think of this system?
