RPI (Rated Power Index) is an objective power ranking which considers strength of wins. For two teams with the same record, the one that has played the tougher schedule, as measured by number of wins of their opponents, will rank higher. Teams are first ranked top to bottom by their raw won-loss record, which assigns them points. Teams with identical records are assigned the same points value. Next, for each team, victories over others "gather" those respective points. In the end, two factors contribute to the RPI; a team's own w / L record, and their "points value" for earning victories over other teams with wins.
