Message: [QUOTE="AZcuse77, post: 2063129, member: 6173"] I'm so glad the RPI is going away... its such an awful formula and I hope they don't give it much credence this year. If it wasn't going away it should really change how we schedule and I think it's good to play local teams like Colgate and Cornell each year. Syracuse is probably about 2% to lose to >150 RPI teams (even "bad" Cuse) yet we get punished twice as much when we play #297 Colgate even though both games are a lock. We played #183 #255 #284 #193 not even counting BC twice at #195. This is why we are 84 in the RPI despite being 41 and 51 (before today) in the metrics that actually have any value. I would hate to see us drop a school like Colgate or Cornell just to raise our RPI like some teams have done. [/QUOTE]
