The whole thing is worth reading. Many myths about SOS & RPI propagated in public

it boils down to, Did you collect scalps over the course of the season? Did you challenge yourself in your OOC and provide yourself with a schedule that proves you deserve at an at large bid or a high seed?
The flaw still is that RPI is very important - not yours, but who you play. RPI can be gamed collectively and this is what I believe happens with the P5 conferences. They are able to chalk up more wins collectively in the non-conference part of the schedule and that benefits all its members during the conference season.

The talk all sounds good and makes sense but the goal posts keep moving. I don't disagree that schools like UD need to go out and schedule quality games both at home and on the road but more important than scheduling is still winning some of those and a bunch in conference.
