Message: [QUOTE="PoppyHart, post: 2109813, member: 515"] It looks like he's more concerned with the RPI & road/neutral record. [SIZE=4][B][URL='http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/teams/page/CUSE']Syracuse Orange[/URL][/B][/SIZE] The Orange have a nice wins against top 50 teams - all at home -- including Florida State, Duke and Virginia. However, the rest of the season was not good, and that is reflected in their RPI, which is now in the mid-80s. That would be the worst RPI ever for a tournament team. They also are only 2-11 away from home, which would be the worst ever for a tournament team. And, finally, the Orange have five bad losses, which would be one short of the record for a tournament team. A team with six top 50 wins gets left out almost every year. No team with their negatives ever gets in. [/QUOTE]
