In response to bradley
Top 25 teams had a very good week this past week. Unlikely, the Tigers will not move up one spot to get back into the top 25 due to their inactivity and the performance of others.
Tiger's RPI is currently #21. Warren Nolan has them going 14-0 in the IL and a final RPI ranking of #10. Realtime has the Tigers finishing up 14-0 as well with a final RPI ranking of #13. Both RPI rankings seem unlikely based on the assumption that the Tigers go undefeated and a number of top 25 Teams falter. At the end of the day, the hope is to get a #6 seed if at all possible.
Even with Penn's loss to Villanova, IL conference held its' #8 conference ranking. Strength of schedule for the IL women is only #18 but the win ratio is the fifth highest in the country, 67% 68-33. Both IL women and men need to toughen up their non-conference schedules next year, especially the women.
