Article on NCAA.com today noting that the committee is still using RPI but putting much more emphasis on road/neutral wins. Rather than top-50, top-100, etc. they have created a four tier system where winning on the road vs a top-75 team is treated the same as a home win vs a top-30 team. This is similar to Kenpom's Tier A and B system.



Based on the RPI Forecast, we could have 3 Quad One games and 6 Quad Two games in conference play. Half of the games are chances for quality wins, and only home games vs Drake and Indiana State would fall into the worst category.

There's a way you can review this metric on a running basis for every team on WarrenNolan.com. Find your team's page, for instance:

http://warrennolan.com/basketball/2018/ ... la-Chicago

Go to the lower part of the top banner and click on Team Sheet. This will show you all the wins and losses in each of the RPI categories set forth by the NCAA.

Very cool. Thanks for pointing that out!

This also makes the Milwaukee game a good opportunity .....Hope people are planning on going.....The school is offering a gathering and bus trip....and if you live in the north suburbs it is not that long of a drive.........Would be nice to give the team a little support in what is turning out to be a pretty important game......That Pat Baldwin is a good coach. I think some of Northwesterns troubles this year could be attributed to his departure. He also has a son that is a 4 star......would look good in maroon and gold.

Milwaukee currently sits at 72 in terms of RPI. Based on their schedule they probably should be 8-2 by the time we play.

There are a lot of RPI landmines in the Horizon this year. One or two off nights, and Milwaukee’s RPI could take a big tumble.

RPI Forecast expects them to finish at 161.

Just a suggestion in nomenclature.

I think the bottom "Quad 4" should be renamed "Glute 1".
