Oregon State Beats the Utes! That should help us some.

It's be dandy if they could go on a bit of a run, and finish top 50 in the RPI. This win didn't quite do it. Maybe top half of the PAC12? Probably too much to ask.

Maybe not as hopeless as you might think. The Jarmal Reid suspension hurt them more than his numbers might indicate. Not only did they lose the game to the Utes in which he tripped the ref (they were only down 1 when Jarmal thought he was fouled, fell to the floor and then tripped the ref only scoring 1 point in the remaining 2:56), but they lost 3 of 4 while he was suspended. The announcers last night thought his return had given them a boost.

Reid was almost the goat again. It was his hand that brushed the 3 point shooters arm that gave Utah the 3 free throws to put them ahead. Oregon St and Reid were lucky but that is the kind of luck that can sometimes build momentum and completely change the course of future events. Confidence builds confidence (it compounds) and might yet salvage the Oregon St season.

Valpo's RPI is now 49. The only question remaining is will we drop out of the top 50 by the end of the night. If we win all the rest of our games, we might - repeat might - get back to 31 where we started the day.

wh · February 06, 2016, 07:40:42 PM

We just went to 50. Will anyone say 51?

I think we finished last year with a RPI of 56? That was with a 10 times weaker OOC schedule. Last I looked our predicted ending RPI has stabilized at 42 from 29 yesterday? Is there no end in sight?
