Big East 26-2 in non conference. As Steve Lavin points out, these good November and hopefully December performances will definitely help the league come post season selection time.

Massive start to the week for the league and doing a lot to make up for the marginal start.

Huge. My take is Purdue or Illinois will win the B14.

Been the best day as a MU fan in a long, long time, and an awfully good 2 days for the Big East.

Great start for the BigEast, but leave it to those nerds in the Ivy League to figure out how to break the RPI code.

Someone might want to tell them that the Big East has 11 teams now.

Since RPI isn't really a thing anymore, they probably don't update the site often.

SH defense against Michigan looked pretty good last night. BE may not be having such a down year after all.

Yeah, they didn't break it... it was a bad design from the beginning. Which is why it isn't used anymore.

The MVC figured it out about 20 years ago and the Committee penalized them for it. Missouri State had an RPI of 21 and was left out of the tourney. It happened to them again when they were left out with an RPI of 42 but no "signature win."

kenpom is insanely conservative on movement. Especially at the top.

KenPom, like most rankings, is not actually about the rank but is really about the score (AdjEM is the score that KenPom uses). As stats often are, KenPom scores are on a bell curve. There is a lot of space between the scores of teams ranked towards the top and towards the bottom and a lot less space between the scores of teams ranked towards the middle. This means that it takes a lot for top teams to move up or down (same with the garbage teams ranked 325 or worse).

For example, the space between #1 Gonzaga (+31.27 AdjEM) and #2 Kansas (+27.12) is greater than the space between #88 Marquette (+9.09) and #118 Missouri (+5.07). This means Gonzaga can likely suffer multiple losses before Kansas would be able to overtake them.

Because KenPom is played on paper, while basketball is played on the court...

One of these years, the title-winning team is gonna be cutting down the nets but they'll give the trophy to the loser because they were still ahead on kenpom.

Seton Hall won the Virtual Basketball tournament (simulated on some guys' old Playstation 2) last year, which is canon. I swear to god you guys don't follow basketball at all.
