Longtime readers will remember that I used to post a feature on a fairly biweekly basis in which I checked the RPI and game results of K-State's men's basketball opponents.

In the interest of beefing up basketball coverage to please the mothership, I have decided to resurrect the RPI WATCH feature, which I haven't produced since Bruce Weber became the coach.

It was nothing personal with him, mind you. I just got real busy with real life. (Translation: I got married.)

The following are results through Friday. I would have Long Beach State's second game in this, but RealTimeRPI's free site hasn't updated with that result yet.

Overall Record = 1-0

Big 12 Record = 0-0

Top 50 Record = 0-0

RPI = 65

SOS = 148
