Looks like Hawaii is hitting the road during tournament time.... Yea, They lost to UCLA but losing to California at home is what really hurt them more in the RPI so far. A couple of good California wins against top 5 teams in PAC12 may bring them up some.

So, if the selections were today, Big Ten would get in 8, would you say? Illinois being a bubble. (yes, I know they are only .500, but this is a hypothetical).

XII down two from last year to 5 (frankly more of a transfer of bids to the SEC, which makes sense considering SEC absorbed two tourney teams). SEC up to 5/6 WCC up to 4, MAC down to 1 bid from four last year.

Also I think I speak for all fans when I say, "Please send UW and JMac to the Nebraska regional." ;D

Could you imagine what this place would be like it Penn State really did draw Miami as their Sweet Sixteen matchup?

A couple of good California wins against top 5 teams in PAC12 may bring them up some. For the NCAA volleyball RPI, whether a match is home, away, or at a neutral site makes no difference, right? Every match is either a W or L with no modifiers; is that correct?

For the NCAA volleyball RPI, whether a match is home, away, or at a neutral site makes no difference, right? Every match is either a W or L with no modifiers; is that correct? Based on this, a win at home is worth less than a loss away and vice versa. I think this was changed in 2004 to include Home and Away wins/losses. Lots of calculating! Calculate Winning Percentage The team's winning percentage counts for 25 percent of the RPI. To determine this component, total the number of wins and losses. Multiple the number of home wins by 0.6, home losses by minus 1.4, neutral-site wins by 1, neutral-site losses by minus 1, road wins by 1.4 and road losses by minus 0.6. Then add the numbers. Calculate Opponents' Winning Percentage The total winning percentage of all opponents played by a team counts for 50 percent of the RPI. To determine this component, total the number of wins and losses. Multiple the number of home wins by 0.6, home losses by minus 1.4, neutral-site wins by 1, neutral-site losses by minus 1, road wins by 1.4 and road losses by minus 0.6. Then add the numbers. Calculate Opponents' Opponents' Winning Percentage The opponents' opponents' winning percentage counts for 25 percent of the RPI. To determine this component, total the number of wins and losses for all of the teams that played any team's opponents. Multiple the number of home wins by 0.6, home losses by minus 1.4, neutral-site wins by 1, neutral-site losses by minus 1, road wins by 1.4 and road losses by minus 0.6. Then add the numbers. Calculate RPI Multiply winning percentage by 0.25, opponents' winning percentage by 0.5 and opponents' opponents' winning percentage by 0.25, then add the numbers. This is a team's RPI. www.ehow.com/how-does_5143295_rpi-calculated.html

A couple of good California wins against top 5 teams in PAC12 may bring them up some. actually, what's hurting hawaii more is that 8 teams on their schedule have losing records. the Cal loss is just one result, and while their current win/loss record (9-8) isn't the greatest, their RPI is still a healthy 35, likely due to the strength of their schedule. Hawaii at least gets some benefit from that, even though they lost to Cal.

This is a team's RPI. www.ehow.com/how-does_5143295_rpi-calculated.htmlthis has been discussed on the board before, and i think these adjustments are made for college basketball. but not for volleyball. someone more "in the know" can probably confirm.

My recollection of past discussions on this topic is that the 2004 changes only applied to basketball RPI. Volleyball RPI makes no adjustment for home and away.

You are correct for volleyball. The explanation by psumaui applies to basketball, not volleyball
