Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2008190, member: 405"] Neither league may be a P5 league, but the Mountain West is a far better league. The Patriot League has only 1 of its 10 teams ranked in the top 100 by RPI and that's Bucknell at 95. The average RPI ranking of Patriot League teams is 212, and they have 3 teams whose RPI's are over 300, meaning worst of the worst in all of college basketball. The Mountain West isn't a P5 conference, but their top team is currently Nevada at 32, and they have 4 teams (out of 11) at 113 or better in the RPI. They have no teams with RPI rankings in the 300s. Their worst team is 8-4 Fresno State with an RPI of 243. Their average RPI is about 60 spots better per team than the Patriot League. [/QUOTE]
