We’ll add RPI Rankings when we have more data points. We also take a guess at where the NCAA tournament cutline should be.
18. Boston College (5-5, 0-0) NET 189
Last Week: 18
Boston College has already lost 5 times. There’s going to be a lot more Ls coming. They have no games this week.
17. Georgia Tech (6-4, 0-0) NET 200
Last Week : 17
Georgia Tech looks like they will be battling Boston College for the bottom of the ACC all season. If they lose to either Marist or Lafayette just call it a season.
16. Florida State (5-4, 0-0) NET 122
Last Week: 14
FSU has lost three games in a row, all by double digits. They need to sweep UMass and Dayton this week.
15. Pitt (5-5, 0-0) NET 164
Last week: 13
Pitt has that win over Ohio State, but nothing else. What are they doing losing to Hofstra? Villanova and Binghamton are this week.
14. Stanford (7-2, 0-0) NET 119
Last Week: 10
Stanford was cruising along until an ugly home loss to UNLV. San Jose St and UT Arlington are ahead this week.
13. Syracuse (5-3, 0-0) NET 73
Last week: 16
Syracuse gets a bump after a great win over Tennessee. Watch out for this team. St. Joe’s and Pitt killer Hofstra are this week.
12. Notre Dame (8-3, 0-0) NET 68
Last week: 15
Someone please tell the Notre Dame AD not to go nuclear on me for having the Irish 12th. The wins over Missouri and TCU are solid, but they may have lost star Marcus Burton for more than a month. Evansville is this week.
11. NC State (7-3, 0-0) NET 30
Last Week: 11
If NC State could knock off Kansas at home, it could change the trajectory of its season.
10. Virginia Tech (8-2, 0-0) NET 56
Last Week: 12
Virginia Tech is moving back towards the bubble. The win at South Carolina helps. MD Easter Shore should be win number 9.
9. Wake Forest (7-3, 0-0) NET 59
Last Week: 8
Michigan has destroyed just about everything in its path, but Wake Forest took them to OT. There’s potential here. Queens City and Longwood shouldn’t be a problem.
——————————————- NCAA Cutline —————————————————————
8. Miami (8-2, 0-0) NET 25
Last Week: 9
That win at Ole Miss looks good. Miami’s metrics are solid. Don’t slip against UL Monroe or FIU this week.
7. Clemson (7-3, 0-0) NET 27
Last Week: 5
Clemson blew a more than 20+ point lead to BYU in what would have been a massive win. If they beat Mercer and South Carolina, they stay on the right side of the bubble.
6. California (9-1, 0-0) NET 54
Last Week: 6
Look who’s won 6 games in a row. Cal has Northwestern State this week.
5. SMU (9-1, 0-0) NET 31

SMU was able to get a good win over Texas A&M. LSU is next, and that’s another chance for a Power conference win.
4. Virginia (9-1, 0-0) NET 21

Virginia is on an absolute roll, racking up double-digit wins left and right. Their next game is 12/20 against Maryland.

Last Week 2
Louisville got a nice quality win against Indiana. Memphis and Tennessee are this week.
1. Duke (10-0, 0-0) NET 2
