What's syracuses RPI?


Because it could jump notably if they beat Notre dame at Notre dame, where they currently lead 20-15

Great result for us! Last I checked they are in the 70's but this will help us no doubt

If Syracuse upsets duke this weekend somehow, we got ourselves another top 50 win.
Could be huge

Cuse winning tonight against nd surely helps our RPI!

 

[ADORAZ]

Niagara won too and they were double digit underdogs.

A&M down 4 with 2:03 to go

What to root for tonight:

Texas (17-10, No. 41) at West Virginia, 7 p.m., ESPN2 (West Virginia)

LSU (19-8, No. 53) at Auburn, 7 p.m., ESPNU (Auburn)

N.C. State (16-11, No. 52) at North Carolina, 8 p.m., ESPN3 (UNC)

Boston College at Pitt (18-10, No. 36), 9 p.m., ESPNU (BC)

Texas A&M (19-7, No. 33) at Arkansas, 9 p.m., ESPN (Arkansas)

New Mexico at Boise State (20-7, No. 42), 11 p.m., ESPNU (New Mexico)

I'm thinking go with Texas in the game. I know Texas is #42 in the rpi, but WVU is #23. Thinking if WVU loses at home to Texas that they might fall behind SJU. Just hope Texas wouldn't leap us.

I'd add Nova beating #21 Providence. They wouldn't fall back much, but if they win at Villanova they would probably move up 5-6 spots.
I don't think we really need to be concerned with #52 NC St or #54 LSU, 19 and 21 spots behind us. Every other game I agree with.

WVU beat Texas
Nova beat PC
Arky beat A&M
Pitt beat BC
NC St beat UNC (They have my attention now.)

Bouse St. vs N Mexico on espnu now

Cuse beating #9 ND on the road had to help our RPI a bit.

We moved up one spot to #32

 

[tom in salem]

6 Big East teams in the top 32.

On ESPN we are a #9 seed in the West playing #8 OK St. Winner gets Gonzaga.

Thanks. Here's the link.

Although playing Gonzaga in Seattle would be very tough, if we are on the 8/9 line, I'd have to be OK with being paired with any #1 seed not named Kentucky.

I'm not sure where you guys are seeing 32? STJ rpi is 39 updated today by the Ncaa.

I think ESPN has it differently due to listing our games vs Minn and Gonzaga as neutral court.

 

[ccnobz]

Ok, but the brackets aren't drawn up based on Espn's numbers.

 

[Red2395]

We are firmly off the Bubble.
I think only a loss to the Golden Eagles puts us back on the Bubble

 

[Jack Williams]

If we win our next two games we are dancing. If we only beat Marquette I'd want a win or two in the BET

 

[ras]

We don't have to win our next 2. I think if we win 2 more games we are in. We could go 1-2 in our next 3 and win a game in the BE tourney or go 2-1 and loose round 1.

Lunardi said if we win both this week we're in. So if we lose to Georgetown, we'd either need to beat Nova or win our first game in the BET (since it will be against a top 50 RPI team). Simple as that.

kenpom has us as a 10.
