San Francisco beats Portland to almost double North Carolina's lead over Oregon State. Stanford beats Wazzu, which hurts Oregon State's RPI in the short-term but should help Oregon State's RPI in the long run. The North Carolina and Oregon State RPIs were close at one point, but opponents and opponents' opponents would really have to kill it for Oregon State to not finish closer to RPI 31 Northeastern than RPI 29 North Carolina. You do realize that 90% of this thread is you quoting your own posts, right? We just need to win. Can’t control the other s%#t. Host or not…..just keep winning. f%#* the RPI. Whoops. Sorry about posting that Cal beat UW to take the series in the game thread. We can't control it. |

I changed it in my brain to “Live RPI” that rhymes with give. I will respectfully pass. Just keep winning. Just a little too much RPI living for my taste. |

Oregon State's perennial rival North Carolina is currently in 29th, and Oregon State is in 30th. I believe that Oregon State would have passed North Carolina into 29th with a New Mexico win over San Diego State. Instead, San Diego State wins 8-6 in eight, and Oregon State falls further behind North Carolina. San Francisco beats Portland to almost double North Carolina's lead over Oregon State. Stanford beats Wazzu, which hurts Oregon State's RPI in the short-term but should help Oregon State's RPI in the long run. The North Carolina and Oregon State RPIs were close at one point, but opponents and opponents' opponents would really have to kill it for Oregon State to not finish closer to RPI 31 Northeastern than RPI 29 North Carolina. San Jose State beat Nevada and Santa Barbara beat Cal Poly to continue to pile on the bad results for most of the day. While Arizona and Arizona State may be suboptimal opponents because of logistics, they will have better RPIs than UCLA and USC. Wins against Arizona and Arizona State will be worth more than two wins against UCLA and USC. |

While Arizona and Arizona State may be suboptimal opponents because of logistics, they will have better RPIs than UCLA and USC. Wins against Arizona and Arizona State will be worth more than two wins against UCLA and USC. Cal Poly beat Santa Barbara in an upset. The result moves Oregon State closer to RPI 29 North Carolina than RPI 31 Northeastern. The only games tomorrow are the Ivy League (Penn and Princeton) and Patriot League (Army and Bucknell) Tournaments. I don't believe that any of those games affect Oregon State's RPI, but it may affect Oregon State's opponents and/or teams around Oregon State in RPI. The closest team above Oregon State for which it really matters is Duke at RPI 19 and the closest team below Oregon State for which it really matters is Georgia at RPI 37. Both those teams are rooting for Princeton. As such, unless we think that we are catching South Carolina (RPI 6), we are probably rooting for Pennsylvania. In much the same way, unless we believe that we are going to catch Arkansas at RPI 3, Oregon State probably should be rooting for Army over Bucknell to try and catch Boston College at RPI 14 or stay ahead of Louisville at RPI 40. |

Another voice to change things up....RPI watch on Tuesday to cheer against:
North Carolina - noon vs Georgia Tech
Indiana - noon vs Illinois
East Carolina - 9:30am vs South Florida
Iowa - already underway vs Michigan

I assume all the championship tournaments are considered neutral site? If so these games will have less impact than normal.

Correct they are neutral...less impact depending how you see it....a loss worth 1 loss, win is 1 win...so less impact than losing at home or winning on road but more impactful for inverse |

Current...projected RPI has Beaver Nation at 27 I just ran it. Oregon State went 2-0 and finished with an RPI of 29. USC won Pool C, and Washington finished as the wildcard. I believe that Washington would play Stanford in the first Semifinal, and USC would play Oregon State in the night Semifinal. |
