Conference RPI
« on: January 31, 2014, 10:34:37 AM »
Anyone else find it crazy that the Big East is still #4 conference in RPI, ahead of the ACC?

With a very disappointing year for its #1 projected team...not a bad overall performance for the conference. Hard to call us a mid major conference.

MU is 86. Not updated for last night's win yet though.

FWIW, SLU is 22, Richmond is 47.

If Georgetown can beat MSU at the Garden tomorrow, I think it would be a decent boost for the BE since everyone has two games with Gtown.  MSU is a very strong team in RPI/kenpom, but they're down a couple players so the Hoyas may have a chance at MSG.

The Big East is not even close to a "mid-major".  Most years it will be 3rd or 4th best conference in the land.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

perhaps only for the aspect of not having football but the basketball is strong in this one

Agreed. If we had SLU and Richmond this year, I think we'd be 2nd or 3rd.

Dayton cracked the Top 25 earlier this year.

The old big east would have been really top heavy this year with Syracuse, Pitt, Cinci, Louisville, and Nova all having really good seasons so far.

Right. MU would have been toast. But we have a chance with the new BE this year. Next couple of years we compete with all of 'em regardless.

I actually wish we had SLU in the conference this year.  Not sure about Dayton or Richmond but I would take either of them to get SLU.

With so many teams (including 5 or 6 bad ones), the ACC is eating itself. They will have substantially more team in the tournament than the Big East despite being ranked lower.

Maybe I should have put it this way ---- There will be ACC teams in with same record as BE team/teams that don't make it.

Agree with this. I would also be ok with taking SLU and staying pat for a while. 11 worked for the B1G for a couple decades.
