When RPI works against you…..
I mean, that's what the RPI is. It's an objective evaluation of your record, the teams you've played, and the implied strength of your record.
It is NOT a perfect measure of which teams are better than others. It is but one metric used to evaluate a team's resume.
Arkansas has a good record against a weak schedule. But the RPI is comparing them and that 25-7 record against 104 teams that have had a harder schedule this season. No, you can't control how good the guys you play are. But math is math and it was never intended to be anything else.
Sorry, off soapbox.
