Here are some preseason predictions based upon my own "sRPI" calculations. After your team is the sRPI score, followed by what I predict your final RPI will be once the season concludes, and whether you will make the NT or PI. Because my system is flawless, the only way you'll get a different RPI at the end of the season is if you either over coach or under coach your players or more typically, if you screwed up scheduling. 

Also based on fifteen plus seasons of using the sRPI in Phelan, I can tell you this. If your sRPI score is above 250 you will make the NT unless purposely torpedo your team. If your sRPI score is above 235 you have an 80% chance of making the NT. If your sRPI score is above 225 you have any 80% chance of making the PI. If your sRPI score is below 215, you have virtually no chance of making the Postseason.

Long over-due congrats to Dac on landing a stud in Florida. Robert Spencer is EXACTLY the type player I was speaking about when I said we needed to ramp it up a bit. He packs a double edge sword, in that he is a stud player... but Dac also established himself as someone to deal with for the Cane's, Gators, and Noles in the future.
Not sure about the rest of the class for C. Florida, ( i didn't look at them much), but Spencer alone makes his class a winner.

Thanks zags, took a big risk, rest of class suffered. May have even backed into the kid on a techicality if the SEC CC can be believed (other coach may have forgotten to reissue a dropped scholie) but whatever - key is the kid is going to be a stud!

I wouldn't give a team that finished the season with an overall rating of 683 a snow-balls chance in hell at the NT as well.
formula or not... they usually just suck it.

We are probably on equal footing with most from a coaching standpoint, but, talent wise we are still lagging.
