It says it all that Utah is a 4.5 point favorite at Washington tonight. Doesn't look so hot having our top team with an RPI of 58. Huskies need to either climb up the RPI or GTFO.
 
The new team in first place, by overall record, is Oregon. Two teams tied for first place and 6 teams tied for 3rd. Wtf.
 
That Utah loss continues to haunt my dreams.

If the mountain schools hold court next weekend, there's a good chance there'll be a 4-5 way tie for 1st at the end of it.
 
Monday:

Penn State 11-9 (2-5) @ Ohio State 12-8 (4-3): The Buckeyes sit with a decent 4-3 mark in the B1G, but then you see they've already faced Rutgers, Minnesota and Illinois all in Columbus (those 3 have a combined record of 2-20 in B1G play). The reality is Ohio State just isn't very good. They're an NIT team. Penn State enters with an RPI of 96. This is one they could possibly steal. Still unlikely, but possible. Buckeyes favored by 8.5

Hampton 11-7 (7-0) vs South Carolina State 10-11 (5-2): Hampton's roll in conference play continues. Unfortunately the MEAC is so weak that piling up the wins can only take you so far. The Pirates' RPI is still just 182.

Nicholls State 5-15 (1-5) vs Northwestern State 3-14 (0-7): This may very well be the last time Nicholls wins a game all season...not that a win is assured.

#19 Iowa State 15-4 (4-3) vs #3 Kansas 16-3 (5-2): Cyclones should be in for a nice jump in the rankings when they come out after a week that included a win over #1 Oklahoma. All of a sudden everyone in the Big XII has at least 2 losses, so the Cyclones are right back in the thick of things. Kansas knocked off Texas at home Saturday, but still looked a bit off. The Jayhawks have not looked particularly good since that insane game against Oklahoma a couple weeks back. Cyclones favored by 2 in this one.

Per live-rpi.com, 8 PAC teams in the RPI top 50(Stanford at 50), with UCLA at 51. Oregon the highest at 6. Can't help but think CU would be in the top 10 if they could have held on vs. SMU and Utah. Still at 23 though.

Yep, we're very very strong overall in RPI. Just meant it was out of whack that Washington would be leading the Pac and yet be so low (they've since dropped to 72 with their loss last night. Huskies have some work to do).
 
Lunardi's and Palm's Latest:

Palm: CU a 7 seed vs Seton Hall (Oklahoma City). Texas A&M the 2 seed. <<<< Yes, please

Lunardi: CU a 10 seed vs Wichita State (Oklahoma City). Texas A&M the 2 seed.

Palm
Oregon: 4 seed
Arizona: 5 seed
USC: 6 seed
Utah: 6 seed
Colorado: 7 seed
Cal: 8 seed
Oregon State: 9 seed

Lunardi
Oregon: 4 seed
Arizona: 5 seed
USC: 5 seed
Utah: 8 seed

Colorado: 10 seed
UCLA: 11 seed

Yeah sorry, I agreed, was just a bit surprised there were that many in the top 50. Seems like with the 2 road wins, if the Buffs can hold serve at home (easier said than done) they'll be dancing.

Pretty big Monday. That ISU game is going to be great. 7:00 on ESPN.
 
Updated the OP for RPIs last night. Just got the AP ranks done.

Buff resume remains extremely strong.
 
Frank Mason going "Fortune" with the turnovers. But still, I wish VA schools hadn't let you get away, Frank.
 
Despite no CU opponents playing today, the Buffs saw their RPI improve 2 spots to #21 thanks to the Florida and Providence losses. Can't complain.
 
Wednesday:

Buffs 15-5 (4-3) vs Stanford 11-7 (4-3). Big home swing for the Buffs. Win these two and the Buffs could well be tied atop the Pac at the end of the week. CU's RPI is sitting pretty at 21, but there's still a lack of quality wins. Beating Stanford again with its RPI at 49 (and Cal at 38) offer a chance to add to that. Stanford's got Dance hopes of their own, with Lunardi having them right on the outside. They know what a win in Boulder would do in terms of a boost. Buffs are favored by 6.5

Auburn 9-9 (3-4) @ Ole Miss 12-7 (2-5): Auburn has been woeful on the road this year: 1-6 with the only win a close one at Coastal Carolina. This might be their chance to break through as Ole Miss has dropped 4 in a row. Auburn's RPI currently sits at 86. Seems like they're kind of destined to hang around that 100 zone. Rebs favored by 5.

Colorado State 11-8 (3-3) vs San Jose State 6-14 (1-7): Rams should roll. SJSU is woeful. Unfortunately they're so bad that it will likely do nothing for RPI. Rams favored by 12.5

Air Force 10-10 (1-6) @ New Mexico 11-8 (4-2): MWC is taking its toll on AFA. They've been close in some games, but just can't get W's. New Mexico isn't anything special this year, but it's extremely hard to imagine AFA winning at the Pit. Lobos favored by 14

Cal 14-6 (4-3) @ Utah 15-5 (4-3): Key game for the Pac logjam and who lands byes. Both teams are coming off big wins: Cal showed it is still highly capable even without Wallace by beating Arizona, while Utah won in Seattle. Cal may miss Wallace in a big road environment like this though. Should be a good one. Utes favored by 5.5
