Was discussing UL with my brother. I felt they were in. The RPI/Quad thing is a joke. Like I said, when you start valuing a win vs Loyola as more or equal to that of a win vs WVU...something is terribly amiss. Louisville beat Fla. St twice....VaTech twice. And Notre Dame. St. Bonnie, 26th in the RPI somehow, best win is..........Rhode Island. A good team. But their next two best-------Buffalo and Syracuse. After that, its Northeastern. Thirteen(13) of their 25 wins, or half, werre versus sub 150 teams. But they are in over........UL? How? Well I will tell you-----The RPI. It's a joke.
Like I said, when a "W" vs Loyola, St. Bonnie, or Buffalo is on par or greater than a "W" vs a Kansas, UNC, Duke, UK, etc, etc...the system is broken. Buffalo had ZERO Top 50 wins. Their best win(s) are...........Toledo twice. Yet they count as a Quad 1 win. That is insane.
No way you can convince me that St. Bonaventure is better than USC, UL, Notre Dame, etc, etc...None. Zero.
No way you convince me its more impressive or equal to beating Buffalo as it would be in beating UK, Duke, etc, etc...But to the NCAA committee, it is.
Shameful. Really is.
