At 61 after taking 2/3 from Irvine. What a disgrace. I mean what do ya do, probably have to win out to make the ncaa tournament.

RPI Now Worse Than Before The Weekend

That's surprising and a shame. That was a damn nice series win
I personally don’t understand it. How can you win 2/3 against a team like Irvine and make zero progress
Bau and told you so 4 years ago about RPI............
Sunday games all over now and it went up to 57. So we managed to raise it four spots over the weekend, but it isn’t plain stupid how much one home loss to a team like Irvine dropped it.
Also, Nebraska losing on Monday would hurt it some as well.
Nebraska losing two to Northwestern.
Rutgers losing to Penn State.
Purdue losing twice to Michigan State.
Evansville getting swept by Southern Illinois.
Hawaii losing twice to Cal Poly.
Bradley losing one to Valpo.
All of those results more than offset Okie State’s impressive weekend.
Hell, the points lost alone in those games listed above would be about enough to negate the points gained in Iowa’s Saturday win.
Flip half of those results where the favored team won instead of lost and Iowa is likely #52 or #53 instead of #57.
Couple that with the fact that it’s a really tight race in the 50-65 range right now, there is very little margin for error for the Hawks in their games and they could likely use some help as well. A Nebraska win today would elevate Iowa from #57 to #55 for short term but Gonzaga plays Washington State tonight (Gonzaga favored) and Pepperdine is impacted by that game and the BYU / San Diego State game.
Iowa fans should be rooting for the Cornhuskers, Cougars and Aztecs today.

That all seems really unnecessary for determining if Iowa should make the NCAA tournament.
It's not even, or ever was, this complicated for basketball and their tournament is a much bigger deal in the NCAA's eyes.
