And so, our loss at Missouri "helps" us because they also lost to Kentucky (and nearly everyone else in the SEC). And all this time we've been upset by it.
No.
No, indeed. Missouri losing hurts our RPI far more than the win their opponents pick up.
Our opponents have played about 900 games. Our opponents' opponents have played about 27,000. Plus, part 2 of the RPI is worth twice as much, which means every Missouri loss hurts part 2 about 60 times as much as it helps part 3.
