We’ll add RPI Rankings when we have more data points. We also take a guess at where the NCAA tournament cutline should be.
Stats come from https://www.warrennolan.com/
18. Boston College (7-10, 0-4) NET 181, RPI 235
Last Week: 18
Could Boston College go winless in the ACC? Syracuse and Pitt are at home this week.
17. Georgia Tech (10-7, 1-3) NET 164, RPI 192
Last Week : 15
Georgia Tech has lost 3 straight double digit games. I see two more losses in their future with a road game against NC State and a game at home to Clemson.
16. Florida State (7-10, 0-4) NET 134, RPI 177
Last Week: 17
FSU isn’t going anywhere this year, but they’ve shown flashes of being decent. They are going to upset somebody soon and it might be Wake Forest, but I doubt they can get Miami on the road.
15. Pitt (8-9, 1-3) NET 101, RPI 118
Last week: 16
Pitt is like FSU. They aren’t going anywhere, but they’ve shown flashes of being decent as well. Louisville and a road game at BC are this week.
14. Notre Dame (10-7, 1-3) NET 72, RPI 66
Last week: 14
Notre Dame is just about finished. Road games with Virginia Tech and UNC are upcoming.
13. Wake Forest (10-7, 1-3) NET 59, RPI 71
Last Week: 12
Wake Forest has lost 4 of their last 5 games. They are pretty much playing spoiler now. A game at FSU, and then a home with SMU is this week.
12. California (12-5, 1-4) NET 69, RPI 78
Last Week: 7
Three losses in a row have dropped Cal off the NCAA radar. UNC at home is a must-win.
11. Syracuse (12-5, 3-1) NET 60, RPI 87
Last week: 13
Syracuse is slowly moving towards the bubble. If they sweep Boston College and Virginia Tech, we can start a serious NCAA discussion.
10. Virginia Tech (13-5, 2-3) NET 55, RPI 29
Last Week: 9
Virginia Tech has been so snakebit late in games, and it may cost them an NCAA bid. They need a sweep of Notre Dame and their game at Syracuse.
——————————————- NCAA Cutline —————————————————————
9. Stanford (14-4, 3-2) NET 65, RPI 30
Last Week: 10
Stanford is 6-2 against the Q1/Q2, and just beat UNC. Duke is this week.
8. NC State (12-5, 3-1) NET 29, RPI 55
Last Week: 11
NC State has crept inside the bubble. They host Georgia Tech, which is layup, then go to Clemson.
7. Louisville (12-5, 2-3) NET 21, RPI 45
Last Week 4
Louisville has lost 3 of its last 4 games and is slipping towards the bubble. A game at Pitt and a home game with Virginia Tech make for a critical week.
6. North Carolina (14-3, 2-2) NET 30, RPI 20
Last Week: 2
North Carolina’s defense is a complete mess. They go to California and host Notre Dame this week.
5. SMU (13-4, 2-2) NET 32, RPI 12
Last Week: 6
SMU’s Boopie Miller might have the shot of the year with the half-court game-winner over Virginia Tech. Virginia at home is another big one. There is also a game at Wake Forest this week.
4. Miami (15-2, 4-0) NET 31, RPI 51
Last Week: 8
Can Miami’s surge continue with a visit to Clemson and a home game with FSU? A sweep will put them in the top 25.
3. Clemson (15-3, 5-0) NET 26, RPI 25
Last Week: 5
Clemson is playing great basketball. Miami and NC State are at home, but will be tests.
2. Virginia (15-2, 4-1) NET 14, RPI 21
Last Week: 3
Is Virginia on a roll or what? A game at SMU will feel like a NCAA tournament battle.
1. Duke (16-1, 5-0) NET 3, RPI 4
Last Week: 1
Duke cruised at California, and now gets a red-hot Stanford team on the road.
