A couple of points on analytics.

#1.   Since they are foundations for betting system, KP and Sagarin have some "how have you played lately" element to them.   Which makes them inconsistent with the "overall body of work" concept.

#2.  Just some logic based on my experiences in the business world or any environment.

If you are looking to get rid of something (the RPI), you don't have much faith in it.
If you are replacing it with something new, it means you have faith in it.

I think the individual team ranking (KP/SAG/BPI) will have much more importance moving forward than in the past.  Now that it is being embraced I can't see a team that is top 15 in those metrics like Wichita St missing the tourney.  Yes they lack top wins but they will ignore that #.   My thought anyway.

We may get a hint of that based on where Wichita St is seeded.

The big difference between me and Palm would be the treatment of Wichita St.   Based on what we have been publicly told, it is nuts not to include Wichita St as an at large.[/B]
