Kansas is #1 in the RPI; In a related story, the RPI is officially broken

Yes, that's right. The Kansas Jayhawks, which have been beaten by 32 points and 25 points in separate games this year, are officially the #1 team in the RPI. Yes, they are ahead of UK which is undefeated and beat Kansas by 32.

In related news, the RPI is the sole "computer"-related methodology that the Committee uses to seed teams (reference 2013-2014 and 2004-2005, Louisville Basketball).

The RPI is clearly rewarding Kansas for playing a schedule that was essentially against all medium-to-good teams. But, we're not trying to give out the "no very bad opponents" award.
