I'm not sure if the RPIforecast is 100% accurate, but if they end up at 10-8 (17-13 overall) there RPI would be 118.   Let's even say it will be closer to 100.   No matter how many positives, that is too high.

The reason the RPI shoots up is because they have a poor ACC schedule coming up.  BC twice, Georgia Tech twice, and NC St, are five of the last 6 games.   So I think they can certainly get to 11-7, and possibly 12-6 based on that schedule.    At 12-6 the RPI would probably still be in the 80s --- I believe Arizona St made if from there once, or just missed.    RPI is not the end all of numbers, but usually when its past the sixties you have no shot.

In my view they have to go 12-6, and then they may be OK.    It seems crazy that they are not in at 12-6 and we would be in at 9-9... but they were more than 3 games behind us resume wise before the ACC season started.

They state that conference record is totally ignored when they do body of work -- they can say its ignored, but I am sure they notice it and it could bias them.
