RPI Forecast Site

I stumbled across a sweet RPI forecast site. It projects what a team's RPI would be at the end of the season based on what there record is. If you click on the team it shows the percentage chance of winning each game, percentage chance of finishing with a certain record, and what your RPI would be if you did finish with that record.

Ouch. If we finished our last 13 games at 3-10, that'd be one hell of a meltdown.

Deep within the heart of Iowa, a storm is brewing...
... the winds of change ripple throughout the vast fields of corn surrounding the small college town of Ames.

The Gene Chizik era of football continues, and, with it, a renewed attitude of pride, determination, and success.

This is Cyclone Football.

Go Clones! Go Knights!

and it goes up to 6% next time we play them. they got us down as 25.7 point underdogs. only games we are favored in are vs nebraska and colorado

There are not many crowds or places in the country that have a better impact on the game than at Iowa State. The Cyclone fans are truly a sixth man. The place is so loud and always a fantastic crowd." - Former Kansas and current North Carolina head coach Roy Williams

We end up only winning 3 more games???

Are you sure this isn't created by some Hawkeye or Jayhawk fan? If that happens I have a feeling that Hilton would be burned to the ground and you would see the biggest melt down in ISU history.

With our schedule 3-10 would not shock me.

I would like to think if we played KU 100 times we would win more than once...

Ken's stuff doesn't take into account momentum or injuries. Remember, we lost to Bradley without Wes, and we've become a better team as the year has gone on. Don't discount Ken's stuff (I've been able to interact with him in the past), but realize it's just another computer rating thing.

We will win at least 6 more games. This is too much of a reflection of our first 10 games. Looks like Nebraska strength of schedule of 313...pretty low.

Dont they update their projected records as thing pan out? 14-16 would have been a fair record earily but I'm not so sure about it now.

I'm not an expert on sports, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night

I'd be shocked in a good way if we won 6 more. People are getting carried away after two homers versus teams we should beat. The sched gets a lot tougher for a while now.
