Makes perfect sense to me. A 25-7 35 RPI team that hasn't been past the S16 the last 3 seasons is not an A+ team. If you were an A going into the season your prestige probably would not have dropped further, but from A+... yeah.
this. and monster, of course rpi is part of prestige! so is record. prestige was not tweaked when the projection report was put into place, at least not in the current/old engine depending on your world, so it still relies on the older mechanisms like rpi and record. NT success is a big part of it too, of course. my experience is that the difference in rd2 and s16 is not that much. really, the game under-weights NT success, for example a final 4 with 10 losses and 20 rpi is not that great of a season, prestige wise, its similar to a 2nd round season with 2 losses and #2 rpi.
i agree with others that you are very, very slightly below a+.
