This is for all fans of college basketball and football. But we must be fans open-minded to each other's opinions. Looking, listening, watching, and willing to...
Welcome new guy. Your thirst of college hoops knowledge will be quenched in this group. <-----Original Message-----> From: titusville06 Sent: 2/19/2005...
I am a hugh NC Tar Heels fan and was very impressed by the way Maryland played. However, they have been so inconsistant - will they go to the big dance? ...
Mark, The Terps got into the Big Dance when they beat Duke in OT a week ago. They play in the toughest league in the land and have a high RPI. Duke,NC,Wake and...

Stephen While I agree and they are in my bracket but losses to NC State (2 times) and Clemson speak volumes of the type of team that will show up. You can see...
I don't think it is fair to say that BC's facilities are inferior because of the size to the MCI Cetner, Continental Arena and MSG. Have you been to a G'Town,...
After looking at the Longhorns resume, several issues jump out at me. First, ZERO quality road wins. Not good. Second, TWO wins vs. RPI top 50. Not great. ...
I have to agree. Texas has managed to slink through a poor season in a all right Big 12. But come conference tournament time , they have what looks like a...
They don't completely ignore everything from before, but it does get less weight. _____ From: Kartik Krishnaiyer [mailto:kkfla737@...] Sent: Tuesday,...
Thanks for that clarification. Speaking of injuries I was at the Miami-Ga Tech game the other day and while Tech gutted out a win (or actually Miami gave away...
Wait a minute here ... when did the Big 12 get shifted down? Last I checked they were third in Conference RPI. Their conference leader was claiming a #1 seed....
It spite of the myriad of excuses you use to defend Texas, you still can't reasonably believe they look like a tournament team! Their resume is garbage and the...
After listening to the talking heads from the "World-Wide Leader" over the past couple of weeks, I get the sense that since they don't like the results that...
Except Elder is a better 3FG shooter than Bynum (by about 50 percentage points) and Tech desperately needs some outside shooting. I thought Anthony Morrow...
How can Kansas lose three in a row and still be 1 in the RPI? Doesen't make sense ... __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday! ...
First, did you even read my note? It didn't defend Texas at all, it said why they were struggling so badly this season. It was a note about the Big XII and...
Yes the RPI needs to be tweaked next year but for Jay Bilas and others to call it "irrelevant" and a "joke" is IMO pretty foolish. Road wins are an accurate...
The 20 win plateau doesn't mean squat...If you have 20 wins against slop and only home W's, then you are going to be very dissappointed on selection...
With Kansas and Gonzaga on their schedule I am not sure how you can say Ga Tech did not challenge themselves. Michigan (prior to their Horton problems) and Air...
You make my case-Why would anybody put value in a formula that continues to place a team at the top when it loses three games in a row? What does it have to ...
... It doesn't make sense if you assume the RPI is a measure of team strength. If you look at the way the RPI is calculated, the RPI is much more about WHO...
... Play a weaker schedule. It doesn't matter, though - well, not ultimately, since the tourney is what really counts. ... [This E-mail was scanned for...
I wouldn't say irrelevant, but it sure doesn't make sense. Two big ten bubble teams, Minn and Indiana, have RPI rankings that are about 20 - 30 points apart in...
