Duke's quality win bonus is almost double Tech's. If Tech had Duke's

bonus, Tech would be 9th in the adjusted RPI. I believe they only count OOC games for bonus, and Duke has nine OOC wins against schools in the RPI top 50. Tech has five. Also, Duke's highest OOC wins (UF and UCLA) and better than Tech's (Alabama and Liberty).

But they are 7-2 against 51-100. We are 10-0. Those 2 losses have to offset

Duke has a lower RPI than Tech, but they have a higher adjusted RPI due to

Their remaining regular season games won’t help them though.

Hard to make up RPI if not in a major preseason tournament like Clearwater**

Duke vs. VT: Better to lose to great teams than beat good ones?**

Today's KPI has the Hokies at #9
VTChip • 04/14/25 09:50 AM ET
We have the second worst loss in the top 15 of KPI...

At least it will mean several SEC vs SEC in Supers
VTsportscaster • 04/14/25 11:45 AM ET
Yeah, because the deck is stacked for the SEC in every sport! Total BS!**
