[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 943315, member: 2843"] If there's an expectation our RPI (#60 today) can improve by season's end... it can't. Mathematically... it cannot... at least not much. Our own record only accounts for 25% of RPI. The winning % of our opponents & opponents of opponents account for the other 75%. That means we must play (not necessarily beat ... smh) teams with good winning %. There are 22 games left on the schedule... 19 of those are v teams with 12-17 losses. Only one team (UVA) has a "helpful" winning %. That could change slightly if VT & Miami & Duke get hot... the problem there is if we beat them it hurts their winning % & mitigates helping Ga Tech's RPI. [Both ND & Clemson have better RPI than GT. Their records are worse & we beat both head to head] I think/hope our post-season prospects hang on the ACC. Seems reasonable to expect the committee to award the conference with 8-9 bids. Get to (stay at) 8th and we'll be in. ETA... I'm officially on the RPI haters club. 😎 [/QUOTE]
