RPI WATCH: 2/10/2010

I don't have much to say about last night.

Thanks to Boston's tough one-point loss at home, Alabama's surprisingly competitive loss in Rupp Arena and Oklahoma's choke job at home, our RPI and SOS both slipped a spot.

Meanwhile, Texas Tech slowly is clawing its way back onto the bubble with a sweep of the Sooners. There still aren't any quality wins, but the RPI is solid and the Red Raiders have a chance to make some noise in the days ahead. I'd still classify them as a long shot at this point, though.

Current K-State AP Ranking = 9

Current K-State ESPN/USA Today Ranking = 9

Current K-State Record = 19-4

Great Wins (RPI 1-50*) = Dayton, Xavier, UNLV, Texas A&M, Texas, Baylor
