Use the following link for access to an Excel workbook with actual RPI ratings and ranks and other data for teams based on games through October 16, 2022: RPI Report 10.16.22. On the left of the RPI Report sheet, there are five color coded columns. These columns are based on the seasons from 2007 to the present (excluding the 2020 Covid-constrained season). They show the rank ranges as of this stage of the season from which #1 through #4 seeds have come. They also show the at large bubble range and that teams ranked #22 or better as of this stage of the season always have gotten at large selections.
If you compare the ratings and ranks in the Report to those published by the NCAA, you may see a few small differences. The October 16 game of Murray State 1 v Valparaiso 2 is in the NCAA data base as an October 18 game (with the result already entered). Because of this, the game is not in the data base the NCAA used for its October 16 ratings and ranks. If this game had been entered with the correct date, the NCAA’s and my ratings and ranks would have matched exactly. (I verified this by deleting the game from my October 16 data base and recomputing the RPIs. With the game deleted, the two sets of RPIs match.)
