Some notes after last night's win:
KenPom up to 48 (was 52)
ESPN BPI up to 51 (was 52)
RPI up to 59 (was 70)
Strength of schedule up to 86 (was 97)
Barring a meltdown, Texas should fall in the newly defined "key wins" category, which includes any road win against a team with an RPI of 75 or higher (Texas is currently No. 46).
Also of some note, Tulsa's RPI is up to No. 99. Doesn't make that loss any less frustrating, but if their RPI stays within the top 100 the committee probably won't see it as a 'bad' loss.
Still think at the end of the day it's about getting to 9-9, and to me this became a whole lot more attainable with last night's win. In fact, I'd be borderline surprised if they don't get to 9-9 and think 10-8 may be more likely than anything.
