RPI's good when we're highly ranked and absolutely sucks otherwise.

No, it actually helps alot when we're not highly ranked

I meant when we're highly ranked in it, not the voter polls.

can someone inform me on how Kentucky is LOCK to be in the tournement and how they have a #8 RPI...i mean i know they're non-conference schedule is very strong, but so is ours. They lost to Vandy at home and they just lost 3 straight games...yet they're a lock and #8 RPI

My best guess is their road record. They have three SEC road wins, which this year is pretty good. They also won at Louisville, which now looks good, although they weren't at full strength when they played UK.

Kentucky is like Duke, because of their reputation and history they only need 18-20 wins to get in the tournament, even if they don't deserve it...

That's true too.
