Message: [QUOTE="jdubs30, post: 1688258, member: 1620"] For a quick answer: Yes, BC x2 in conference and losing to St. John's was tough. Also RPI values a road win something like twice as much as it values home wins (I think it's 0.6 for a home win and 1.4 for a road win) -- we weren't good on the road this year. We beat Wake, Duke and BC on the road (I think that's it), only Duke was an RPI help. Teams like NC State, VaTech, GaTech, and ND were only home wins, so it didn't help our RPI nearly as much. The reason why you see teams like Monmouth and St. Mary's with such high RPI is essentially because they beat (and play) a lot of bad teams on the road. The RPI basically compounds on itself and if you keep winning, especially on the road, you will have a really good RPI. [/QUOTE]
