CARMEL, Ind. -- The Rating Percentage Index (RPI) has been
used by the NCAA since 1981 to supplement the selection of at-large
teams and the seeding of all teams for the NCAA basketball
tournament. This list is an independent duplication of the RPI
without input from the NCAA. The basic RPI is derived from three
component factors: Div. I winning percentage (25)%, schedule
strength (50)%; and opponent's schedule strength (25)%. Games
against non-Division I opponents are not used in calculating the
RPI. Beginning with the 2004-05 season, road wins will be weighed
at 1.4; road losses at .6; home wins at .6; and home losses at 1.4.
Neutral-site games are valued at 1.0.
