As Stretch Run Nears, Tourney Talk and RPI Debates Take Center Stage TSL Pass

20-4, 7-3 in the ACC. Those numbers are certifiably insane. I typed them just
because I like the way they look, and I wanted to fit them into an article.
20-4, 7-3. Good stuff. But despite all the great things this team has
accomplished, tourney talk now takes center stage, and the 2009-10 Hokies will
be judged on what happens over the next four weeks.

As I write this, the Hokies have an RPI of 50, according to realtimeRPI.com
and ESPN's RPI Insider. More important perhaps than VT's individual RPI is their
record against the RPI top 50 (1-2), the Top 100 (7-4) and teams outside the Top
100 (13-0). The Hokies have a strength of schedule of 161, out of 347 teams.
