RPI is up to 35 currently.

Counterpoint to an easier run in is that the schedule itself is an RPI drag going forward. The current Warren Nolan prediction has going 10-4 down the stretch, but only moving up to 33.

FIU- 2 of 2
BC- 2 of 3
NC St- 2 of 3
UVA- 1 of 3
ND - 3 of 3

Assuming trading an L vs ND for a W and a series vs UVA helps our RPI, no?

Sort of. The RPI formula is 50% opponent’s winning percentage, 25% opponent’s opponent’s winning percentage, and 25% your winning percentage. The first two are basically out of your control once the schedule is set. It’s also worth noting that if say Florida and UConn go on a tear to end the season, any RPI issues we might have would ease.

In your example, it does make a difference because road wins are given a higher weight than home wins in the 25% of the formula we control, but not as far as winning a series or quality of opponent for the same number of wins. The Needs Report has been indicating that road vs home wins will actually be a pretty minuscule difference for us.

Yeah NC State is the only good rpi team we have left. Virginia is at 94 right now.
