From another thread of mine last night ...

Thus, Adjusted RPI rank will likely be #37 (if we stay in front of Texas A&M) or #38 (if we do not).
Well, it was extremely close. In fact so close that Boyd Nation has Texas A&M in his pRPI at #36 (Cajuns at #38) and Paul Kislanko (SEBaseball.com) has Texas A&M at #38 (Cajuns at #37).

Kislanko Adjusted RPI
Louisiana .5719 #37 (Base RPI .5707)
Texas A&M .5716 #38 (Base RPI .5716)

Boyd's pRPI (only three digits of precision presented in report)
Texas A&M .572 #36
Louisiana .572 #38

Why the difference?

This is due to the following ... Texas A&M has a tie (affects WP) and one of its opponents has a tie (affects OWP). Boyd Nation does not include ties in his pRPI calculation. Paul Kislanko (SEBaseball.com) and the NCAA do.
