Who has the higher strength of schedule?
Team A
Northeastern
Winthrop
Cal State Fullerton
Davidson
Team B
Illinois
Arizona
Longwood
North Carolina
The answer:
Team A - The SOS component according to the RPI (based on today's records) is .016 greater for Team A which would indicate that Team B's schedule is not only worse, but a .016 difference between teams can knock the SOS ranking by a factor of 30 or greater depending on where in the rankings the .016 difference falls.
Not fair is it.
*Note: The SOS is 2/3 your opponent's records and 1/3 your opponent's opponent's records.
