UK # 9 in RPI

[Crankdatmustard]

9 wins against RPI top 100.

2 wins against RPI top 50.

Need to improve on top 25 wins but those questioning this as a bubble team are being ridiculous.

Holy crap what stupidity

The people thinking bubble are bubbles

9 wins against top 100 has gotta near the most in the country.

RPI doesn't matter, rank doesn't matter. We are UK...(I am speaking for a half dozen or so posters....not myself.)

Of course Duke, 1-2 in the ACC standings, is #1 RPI.

 

[Crankdatmustard]

Duke #108 in adjusted defense in Ken Pom. Unless they get that under 50 they have no shot of winning a title.

East Tenn State (#99)
Virginia Tech (#82)
Vermont (#81)
Utah Valley (#80)
LSU (#76)
Georgia (#35)
Louisville (#32)

Who am I missing?

Sorry it is 2-3 vs RPI top 50 and 7-3 vs top 100.

So 7 wins against the RPI top 100.

A&M is at 28 so chance tomorrow night to move up even higher.

our 7 wins against top 100 is still the most wins of anyone in the country. Duke also has 7 then Seton Hall with 6 and several teams tied at 5.

Our conference gives us a ton of opportunities for Top50 wins. There are 7-8 teams that should end up in the big dance

Nope no title. But....cupcake bracket and lots of friendly whistles will get them a long way.

Most championship teams have a defense in the top 20. They really have no chance playing the way they are now. They've consistently allowed average offensive teams to play above their heads and they are lucky they only have 2 losses. They are ripe for another 2nd round exit.

Florida and Texas should have been for sure L's for Duke.

Florida State should have been at the line for a shot to go up three after a and 1 but a ridiculous charge call was called (under 2 to play)
