Pet peeve is playing these "neutral" games in the other school's state. Why not just play them on their campus and have it count as a road win/loss to our RPI and other metrics?
I don't understand the rationale, but our game in Arizona last year was counted as a neutral site game while Oregon St. playing St. Louis in Portland was counted as a home game for Oregon St. and a road game for St. Louis in the RPI.miller0926 said:

1) If a team is playing on its home court, it is always the home team for RPI purposes.
2)If an institution rents the facility, arranges for officials, controls the tickets, and is responsible for game operations, it is the home team, regardless of the opponent.
I mean that playing Oregon State isn't going to move the needle at all, but it's certainly not a bad game. They're (at best probably) a mediocre power five team, so I was just making an analogy to baseball stats like WAR where they rate players against a theoretical average replacement player.Expert Analysis said:
What do you mean by replacement level?
I wouldn't think so.Mustang1 said:
Can we assume this game will be the same week as the Vancouver tournament? One trip out West.
seems like both will be early season but i would assume highly unlikely a single trip.Mustang1 said:
