UH men ranked 87th in RPI hoops rating
Advertiser Staff
The University of Hawaii men's basketball team is ranked 87th out of 336 Division teams in the latest Rating Percentage Index (RPI) released today.UH, coming off an upset win at Long Beach State Saturday, plays at San Jose State Saturday.
UCLA and North Carolina are rated 1-2 in the RPI. Defending NCAA champion Florida is No. 7.
Big Ten teams, Wisconsin and Ohio State, are the top teams in The Associated Press rankings.
The RPI has been used by the NCAA since 1981 to supplement the selection of at-large teams and the seeding of all teams for the NCAA basketball tournament.
The NCAA will select 65 teams to compete in its "March Madness" tournament.
The RPI is the official list of rankings, as released by the NCAA. The RPI is derived from three component factors: Division I winning percentage (25) percent, schedule strength (50); and opponent's schedule strength (25).
Games against non-Division I opponents are not used in calculating the RPI. Beginning with the 2004-05 season, road wins are weighed at 1.4; road losses at .6; home wins at .6; and home losses at 1.4. Neutral-site games are valued at 1.0. The NCAA provides only rankings without calculations
