(Gonzaga was in Phoenix which is a home game in all ways except the gym.) Here are the RPI's of Arizona four road wins: 333, 197, 179, 154. Not a single "good" win outside the State of Arizona. "This fact coupled with their lack of depth makes their 18 (hopefully 19) wins this season all the more impressive." Lack of depth is just another reason NOT to select Arizona. The reality is Arizona had as much depth as the others and more than some, they just weren't good enough to play. Arizona has four wins outside the state of Arizona.

A 63 RPI, 2-9 road record, and losing five of last six says NO SOUP FOR YOU. Quit whining and go quietly into irrelevance.

This fact coupled with their lack of depth makes their 18 (hopefully 19) wins this season all the more impressive. Don't forget that several of those road losses were by a slim margin and could of been avoided less the poor play of Horne...
