Since we've been watching/talking about the RPI ratings, here the latest as of 1-20-2016 (before Purdue game)

 

NU is pretty low. ..about 81.... All the easy games early have shown it's ugly head.

Must win lots of road games coming up against higher ranked teams. :o

 

There's lots of teams ahead of us that sure don't seem to be warranted by looking at their records (worse than ours)...Indiana for one

HOW RPI IS CALCULATED:

 

Factor I is the team's Division I winning percentage and is 25 percent of the RPI. Games against non-Division I opponents are not included in the normal RPI. For the men, beginning in 2004-05, and for the women, beginning in 2011-12, home wins are weighted 0.6, neutral wins 1.0, and road wins count 1.4, and road losses are 0.6, neutral losses 1.0, and home losses 1.4.

Factor II is the team's opponents' Division I winning percentage, or the team's schedule strength, excluding results against the team in question. It is 50 percent of the RPI.

Factor III is the team's opponents' opponents' Division I winning percentage, or the team's opponents' strength of schedule, excluding results against the team in question. Factor III is 25 percent of the RPI.
