in 2022
UT finished 25-5
TxAM 19-11
Ark 18-12
LSU 17-13
Auburn 16-13
Florida 15-15
Georgia 15-15
UT, TxAm National seeds... Florida and Auburn (6 RPI) were the other host sites.... yes over both LSU (14) and Arkansas (17) due to RPI.
Again i say.... RPI is king..... This is the scenario we are battlign right now. Georiga or South Carolina could be a top 10 RPI team with 15 wins. We could be a 24 RPI team with 18 wins. UGA would get the host spot.
To go a step farther than that:
In this very year: LSU BEAT florida 2 of 3 on the field... didnt matter.. RPI still TRUMPED.
In this very year: Arkansas BEAT auburn 2 of 3 on the field... didnt matter... RPI still TRUMPED
Again this proofs very simple:
Conference standings dont trump RPI if there is a discrepancy.
Head to head matters very little
So us taking 2 of 3 from UGA isnt going to matter very much.
