RPI WATCH: 1/7/12
Guess it's been a while since I did one of these, huh? Probably about time for another one, considering another round of Big 12 Conference games is just a few hours away. For the life of me, I don't know how our RPI is staying as high as it is when all of our non-conference opponents keep falling...
RPI WATCH: 1/1/12
Capital One Bowl Week also encompassed a variety of conference and non-conference basketball games, which I have summarized after the jump. Alabama, Charleston Southern, North Florida and Virginia Tech all did their part to keep our RPI high, but George Washington, Loyola Chicago, Southern...
BLOGPOLL TOP 25: Unlikely 5-0
If you had told me a year ago that a television remake of "Hawaii 5-0" would make it to a second season — and even more inexplicably, attract an actor the caliber of Terry O'Quinn — I would have laughed you out of the room. And if you had told me then that Bill Snyder 2.0 would make it...
RPI WATCH: 12/02/2010
Wednesday night was a perfect storm of fecal matter for the Wildcats' RPI. The lowlight of the night was Virginia Tech's failure to capitalize on home-court advantage, a depleted Purdue team and just plain desperation in order to seize a must-win game against the Boilermakers in the ACC-Big Ten...
RPI WATCH: 12/01/2010
She's a heart-breaker, she's a love taker,She can break a heart and take all the love she needs. Missouri lost a true heart-breaker last night in overtime. After expending so much energy — first to get back into the game, then to take the lead late — a series of missteps and...
RPI WATCH: 11/30/2010
Monday night was pretty quiet. Besides our ho-hummish win over Emporia State, Baylor doubled up the score on poor Prairie View A&M (killer schedule so far, Scott Drew) and Wichita State gave UMKC its first loss of the season in Koch Arena. By the way, how good is Wichita State? The Shockers...

Feast Week ended with a bang when UNLV pulled away from Virginia Tech in the second half of the 76 Classic championship game. I still think Virginia Tech will be a solid ball club and the Hokies frankly should be favored this week at home against Purdue, but they have no bench and are overly...
RPI WATCH: 11/28/2010
Quick recaps: James Madison still hasn't lost since we beat them. Denzel Bowles and Rayshawn Goins each had 20-point double-doubles against Eastern Michigan. Duke blasted Oregon. After seeing Kyle Singler go off for 30 points in his home state, I feel pretty good about how we defended him. Don't...
RPI WATCH: 11/27/2010
I wore out my remote control and my DVR yesterday, but I managed to catch key parts of tournament games involving our opponents during the commercial breaks of various football games. Primarily, I was interested in the Oklahoma State-Virginia Tech semifinal, for obvious reasons. Although the Hokies...
RPI WATCH: 11/26/2010
For those interested in following K-State's opponents, the 76 Classic in Anaheim — which features three of them — is front and center. Virginia Tech clowned Cal State Northridge 72-56 on Thanksgiving to propel the Hokies into a semifinal match-up with Oklahoma State, which squeaked by...
