However, I think the Pac-10's RPI will take a hit with the likely sub-200 losses to Mercer and Siena in particular. @"lute" - Injuries only mean so much...even without Daniel Hackett, it's safe to say that the Committee would expect USC to win a game at the Galen Center against an opponent the caliber of Mercer. As for Brook Lopez, a few rumors floating around here in the Bay Area speculate he may not be back as quickly as expected... @Patrick – Your point about many of the top teams losing early is well-taken.

Factor in new players, new system, injuries, etc. No one's been untouched. Ohio State lost. Louisville lost. North Carolina had multiple close calls. etc. etc. Whatever… all the big schools lose early in the season or have close calls. Factor in new players, new system, injuries, etc.
