So Dukes RPI is 11 with an SOS of 3 and it should be surprising that they make the tournament?? We cant use the RPI when it helps us and discount it when it doesnt. Does anyone really think that Duke doenst belong in the tournament?

Right now - no question... IN.

But if they lose their last 3 ACC games to finish 7-9 in conference, as well as lose at St John's, and then lose their 1st conf tourney game... they would definitely be on the bubble.

Duke is 7-7 against the top 50 teams (Bradley is an anemic 1-7).

In the end, SIU, CU, and MSU will get invited to the Dance.
