bisbee Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 We are ranked Number 10. NIU is at Number 16. We will presumably play and beat them which will increase our RPI. However, we can' t afford a stumble over next 4 games or we could wind up out of Top 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jem101 Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Looking at the list, Boston College and UNC are both right in front of the Zips. Hopefully, Maryland wins the ACC tournament and knock out those two in the process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There definitely ought to be a change after the ACC tournament but depending on the actual RPI numbers it can not be simply viewed that a loss will drop them very far given the RPI of who they lose to and whether it is home or road game. At least we know there won't be any ties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top eight would be likely if we win out... then you never know if the regional host will drop a game and give home field to the next team in line.
