Here is the SOS of our 5 undefeated teams:
Villanova 309
Xavier 280
Creighton 337
Providence 294
Butler 284
With those SOS, they better be undefeated!!!
We are 1-4 vs top 50 teams so far(add in DePaul losing to So Miss). And, 2 of the 3 key wins you're talking about are against 1-4 BC and 2-1 Vandy- both of whom finished sub .500 last year.
Waaaay too early to reference RPI or SOS. Even Kenpom isn't that good of a metric until another few games are played.
It's getting more and more accurate. Also- of the I guess 17 teams that those 5 have beaten- I can see Tennessee, St Joe's, and BC as the only ones in the top 100. That won't change. Of the 17 only 1 is a win away from home. It would be frankly more of a problem had any of them lost a game(with the 2-3 exceptions) than it is awesome that they won.
