RPI has Kansas #1 and they didn't make it out of the first weekend

NCAA tourney was wrong, RPI is right, Kansas is #1 not Duke.

Can't argue with the RPI. USD is better than SDSU.

Thought I might as well get this out there. Have to admit I don't like it, and there are lots of reasons why it is the way it is, but it ain't good to finish 2 out of 2. TV's blog shows that in the final RPI, SDSU was 233 and USD was 215.

Yeah, but Pomeroy's formulas bdo a calculation of predicted success across the entire system, and sometimes the rounding causes a game to be dropped here and there--at least that's my understanding. It's all mathematical and stuff.

Plus, I can't type. He's got us at 11-7. Fer-duh.

The fun part of Pomeroy is all of his underlying stats--offensive/defensive efficiency, etc., etc. You can see at a glance that the Jacks are a slightly better than average offensive team (their offensive efficiency is in the green) but they're worse than average on defense (that has the red background). The greener, the better, the redder, the worse, at Pomeroy's site.

Also shows Cassady as a significant contributor. So not sure how they calculate everything but its hard to argue with those math guys. They can make it up but i still cant argue it cuz i am aweful at math.

the best part is they have us marked to win both game against NDSU. I think its possible, but I am going to say this year we split at home. I am excited for confrence play to start so i can try to make a few games, but If we end the year around that mark I will be happy because it is showing improvement.

A thread to keep track of the various ratings for the Jacks' men's basketball team.

As of today, Dec. 14, Pomeroy has the Jacks finishing at 15-14 and 10-7 in the conference. That sounds about right to me, given where the team is right now. If they can get their defensive act together better and get some consistent offensive leadership, they might be able to improve on that. Let's hope. Pomeroy rates the Jacks at #217 in D-I.

Sagarin's ratings are here. He has SDSU at #213.

aren't there 18 conference games?
