Well, even with the losses over the last couple of days, UCLA and Tennessee remain ahead of us in RPI. Their SOS is better than ours, probably because we played too many non-conference opponents with beyond #200 RPI rankings.
But, the committee doesn't simply go by RPI when revealing their last two Top 16 rankings. Third reveal is Monday night.
IIRC correctly, we were ahead of both Tennessee and UCLA in the last rankings. I have not been able to understand what the committee is doing when ranking South Carolina and not ranking Ohio State; doesn't even come close to RPI rankings.
I expect the same Top 11 teams (from last reveal) to remain in the top group, except a different order from 5-11:
UConn
Miss. State
Louisville
Notre Dame
Oregon
Baylor
South Carolina
Florida State
Texas
UCLA
Tennessee
My predictions:
UConn
Miss. State
Notre Dame
Louisville
Baylor
Florida State
Oregon
Texas
UCLA
Tennessee
South Carolina (who I think should be even lower)
