A10 Win% (2016-17)
Conference: 126-126 (.500)
Non-Conference: 104-66 (.612)

That makes sense.
I reran it, dropped our 3 a10 losses from this past season: at
UMass, at VCU, and at GW, added 3 home wins vs. MSU...rpi 21 sos 82.
The selection committee will then hammer the a10 teams for having weak sos's...they will not let you game the system like that.
