Penn State jumped all the way to 71 RPI with their win tonight. Correct me if I’m wrong but that gives us another tier 1 loss with them in the top 75, right?

yep, and it alsmo means that all of our big ten losses are to top-40 OR tier 1 teams. NO bad losses. But we aren't impressing anyone really, it's kinda a meh numbers year but then again we're playing our asses off and not losing bad games for a long time now. Let's hope we can squeeze in, but now this are even MORE interesting on the bubble. college hoops are CRAAAAZY dude. this big ten tourney is gonna be mad interesting!

Can someone please explain to me how our SOS doean't go up after Wisconsin winning?

 

Which of the other 10+ games that effected our SOS went for or against us?

I have to think at this point that when we have Michigan or Maryland play a team we've played twice we're better off with those Mich/Mary winning to put on our "these are the teams we beat" list than the minor bumps in SOS and RPI.

pleasantly surprised we didn't drop more with all of those losses.  I think the last 25 percent, which is opponents opponents went up to offset that  Ohio st purdue w. kentucky, lipscomb, long beach played teams with good records.

Man, something crazy I just noticed is that USC (50) jumped 8 spots in RPI to 42nd after winning a home game against Oregon (80) last night. We won a home game against Maryland (59) and jumped up two spots.

 

But the Pac-12 is SO deep this year.

Speaking of USC, they just announced their second leading scorer is out for the remainder of the year with a patella injury.  This will surely be factored in come Selection Sunday.
