Softball Conference Tournaments of RPI Interest

With that win we are breathing right down Missouri's neck. A Missouri loss today would put us past them, with them having no chance to gain on us if we win one more. Also, Chattanooga won today, and has moved back into the top 75 base RPI, which restores the bonus for two quality road wins. We may be past Missouri already.

No, Chattanooga was already in the Base RPI Top 75 at #72 through yesterday 5/8. So that bonus was already included in the 5/8 official RPI.

But Louisiana Tech moved into the Base RPI Top 75 (from 76 to 73). So the Cajuns now get this one game RPI bonus (once again).

We are still behind Missouri (.66260 to .66027).

BYU is a bubble at-large team playing for their season here. They are certainly motivated.

They have a good way to go; they are a pretty far down the bubble.
