[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 287141, member: 1776"] The reason our RPI is low is because of Nov and Dec. We played 6 teams currently ranked 246 or worse, that is killing our RPI. You can game the RPI. In general if you don't play any or maybe just one team below about 225 your RPI is significantly higher. You get really punished for playing the worst teams. You can play and win and still go down a good 10 RPI spots just for playing them. FWIW, I think this team needed those early patsies or it might not be where it is now, but it is a little anchor that we have to overcome. CBSSports does a nice job with the RPI Breakdown for every div 1 team, Here is GT's - this is not exactly how things are layed out to the Committee but pretty close. [URL]http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/teams/rpi/GATECH/georgia-tech-yellow-jackets[/URL] GT has plenty of good wins. it simply has to win enough games to get in. With only BC and Syracuse currently having RPI lower than 100, pretty much any win is going to help, and road wins in particular will help. You really want to be in the mix - win one of the 2 road games this week. I believe 5 more ACC wins gets GT in. [/QUOTE]
