166 MVC in the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI)

The Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) is a computer-generated rating system that was developed for and is used by both the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball committees to assist in the selection of at-large teams for the NCAA basketball championships. The RPI was fi rst used by the men’s committee in 1981 and consists of three factors (team’s Division I winning percentage, team’s schedule strength, and team’s opponents’ schedule strength.) Below is a listing of annual season-ending RPIs for The Valley and its members (information courtesy of Jim Sukup, Collegiate Basketball News -- data unavailable prior to 1991-92; RPI numbers are from full season rankings).
