Looking on Warren Nolan, our predicted RPI is 31 with a win vs Ole Miss tomorrow.


That’s one of the screwy things about the RPI formula. You would think that sweeping an Ole Miss team that was around #25 in the RPI headed into the series would be a huge boost to LSU’s RPI, but it really isn’t. Ole Miss is so high because their opponents have really good records, which is given 50% weight. Unfortunately, those good records only go into the 25% bucket for LSU, while Ole Miss’ barely above .500 record goes into the 50% bucket for LSU. It just shows how arbitrary and flawed RPI really is.
