This could punch San Diego’s ticket. They desperately need Washington State to win, that punches Tennessee into T25 unadjusted AND adjusted, right? Well it gets complicated. If Washington wins, that helps because they played San Diego twice. I’d imagine its more beneficial that Washington loses, because they would at least have 1 T25 in the nitty gritty. Does Washington even drop that significantly if they lose? No but it is significant enough to drop them out of jnadjusted 25.

I think the top 6 is pretty much locked in now (for RPI).
1. Stanford 2. Illinois 3. Texas 4. Minnesota 5. BYU 6. Pittsburgh
#7 will be Wisconsin if they win and Kentucky if Wisky loses. If Wisconsin loses - USC will be #8 and Wisconsin #9 - otherwise USC will be #9.

If Washington State wins - Marquette will be #15 and Northern Iowa #16. If Washington State loses - then those two will move up a spot and Washington State would be #16.
Oregon will be #17 if they win.
Baylor and Florida are in a virtual toss up for the next spot - which would be #17 is Oregon loses and #18 if Oregon wins.

Does Washington even drop that significantly if they lose? No but it is significant enough to drop them out of jnadjusted 25. Not sure how accurate Fig stats is but they have UW dropping only one spot from 24 to 25 and Tennessee remaining at 26. Surprising after UW just lost....

Surprising after UW just lost.... UW dropped in unadjusted, so it was a big hit RPI-wise for PAC teams because they lost bonus points.

I see this as the final 10 teams going for the last 6 open spots.
Colorado Denver Hawaii Kansas Kansas State LMU Maryland Princeton Saint Marys San Diego
Kansas 'needs' Oregon to win tonight - they actually have a legit path with an Oregon win.

Will a few Pac-12 schools finishing up later tonight hurt or help Colorado? Or will it really make no difference?

Why does KU need an Oregon win? Is it right in front of my face and I can’t see it

Conference matches cancel each other out in terms of changes in winning percentage and the matches left to play don’t have bonuses on the line. UW-WSU was the last match that had that. Remaining matches have seeding implications but don’t help or hurt Colorado.

Why does KU need an Oregon win? Is it right in front of my face and I can’t see it Kansas State and San Diego both played Oregon State. If we assume that New Mexico State and Stanford win. Oregon wins: 49. Colorado 50. Kansas 51. Kansas State 52. Princeton 53. San Diego 57. LMU 58. Maryland Oregon State wins: 49. Colorado 50. Kansas State 51. San Diego 52. Kansas 53. Princeton 57. LMU 58. Maryland

Does Kansas losing today to Oklahoma drop them to uncertainty?

Does Kansas losing today to Oklahoma drop them to uncertainty? I thought it was going to drop them to very doubtful. Things since have worked in their favor and it is now possible.

I don't get why St. Mary's should be so close to a 'lock'. maybe so if one considers a good reason to select them is they conveniently are close to travel to Palo Alto

Oh my. Wisconsin beating Penn State was potentially a 'critical' blow to Oregon.
Oregon wins and they will finish #19 behind Baylor (17) and Florida (18). Of course Washington beating Washington State would have also been sufficient for #17 RPI.
