Subject: MAAC OCC RECORD NOW 20-22
In reply to: JoeStag 's message, "MAAC goes 3-0 tonight" on 09:45:43pm 12/01/05 Thu,

Macc goes 6-1 over the weekend and the conference RPI drops from 13 down to 19. The Maac had a nice weekend but beat up on some pretty weak teams which actually resulting in lowering their RPI quite a bit. Maac could just as easily be back in 14th by this time next week with a really good week or could fall as low as 25th with a really bad week.

Right now the Maac has 2 teams in the top 100 for RPI, Iona 35 and Loyola 41. Here's the upcoming games that can effect the conference RPI this week:

Dec. 06 Monmouth @ Saint Peter's RPI 275
Dec. 06 Tue Manhattan @ Rhode Island RPI 47
Dec. 06 Tue Ohio @ Marist RPI 122
Dec. 10 Sat Delaware @ Rider RPI 246
Dec. 11 Sun Fairfield @ Georgetown RPI 68

Manhatten, Fairfield and Marist have a chance to really boost the Maac's rpi with a win, St. Peters or Rider could lower the RPI with bad losses. Maac needs to go 3-2 or better in these game for the rpi to go up. 4-1 would cause a significant move.

The RPI your using is not the most accurate since it likely doesn't balance SOS with W/L's. Loyola, for example, should not be ranked 41, nor even Iona at 35. You will need at least another two weeks to use these as a guide, be it individual or conference standing.

I imagine after this week the Maac's final conference RPI will nearly be set. Lots of chances for the Maac to score upsets against higher conferences, conversely, Maac has a chance to put up a lot of losses. Even though it has been a down year OCC for the stags, It would be nice if our other Maac teams could do well. If Iona wins Friday it will be very good for the conference as they will surely continue to get top 25 votes
