This ESPN ranking and the other one by College Insider are both
Mid-Major rankings with human elements/judgement/perception
based on panelists/actual people.. kinda like High-Majors have
AP and Coaches Poll...
RPI, Sagarin, Pomeroy (Kenpom) and BPI are computer generated
rankings based on elements such as Win, Loss, Strength of
Schedule, Home/Away, Margin of Win etc.

Thank you iBosbu for clearing that up. One more question. What
Ranking model is used to determine at the end of the
Championships, who gets paired up with who ??

I am not too sure with this question. I think I read some where
that they take into account mainly RPI and also considers
Sagarin and Pomeroy ratings. Lately BPI is also looked at due
ESPN holding so much influence in College Sports.
Hope that helps, Hammertime. Someone with more knowledge in
seeding can perhaps chip in and clear it for us all.

No effect - similar to the influence of most rating systems
outside the RPI. For the mid/low majors the NCAA committee goes
pretty strictly by RPI unless there's a marquee win (so the
public might be mildly interested).
I expect a few of the 14's to fall, so we'll likely end there.
Maybe 13 if enough upsets happen.
More interested in what's going down in Boston in a couple of
hours....

Silly question... Why is SB only playing 29 games when most
other teams play 31 ?????

RealTime RPI: 69
This is impressive. We are pulling a Baseball "schocker" type
season right now. This is a legit RPI ranking. God please help
us get across the AE Tourney. Just three games to win and we can
possibly be a 13 seeded team (hypothetical 26-6)
