As of this afternoon and including the win over Ohio U, the Dukes have an RPI of 14. Vanderbilt's (6-3) RPI is 57. They are 0-3 on the road. Real Time RPI favors the Dukes by 10. A win by the Dukes over Vandy just might result in some recognition by the AP and/or the Coaches Polls. The game will start at 2 PM on Sun. so that should allow you to get to the Palumbo to see the Dukes win another game and then get home in time to watch the Steelers beat the Jets. It will be Buck Night & tix are only $1.00 so treat your neighbors and bring a carload of people. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

I'd like to see us at least begin to get votes. Once you begin to get votes, other voters will take a closer look, giving you a chance to crack the Top 25 down the road. If we can win out through the Pitt game, we should be ranked. (NT) -- duq81, Thursday, December 16, 03:06:04pm
- If the Dukes were to win out as you describe, including beating Pitt, they'd be 14-1 and most certainly ranked in the Top 25. However, there's an away game at Ohio State (8-1 record & sporting a RPI of 4) between now and the Pitt game. A win over Ohio State on Dec. 28th will be an extemely difficult task. But a 13-2 record would be an excellent outcome at the end of the non-conference schedule. But we're getting a little ahead of ourselves. Vandy is the next target!
