I know it’s early, but Lehigh is 10-2 with wins over Villanova (Big East) and Duquesne (Atlantic 10) and currently have a Real Time RPI of 55.
Of their remaining opponents, none currently have an RPI higer than 165 (Holy Cross). Next up is American (170) and everyone else has an RPI below 200.
Their only losses came to high-RPI teams Vanderbilt (9-1, RPI 48) out of the SEC and Princeton (8-2, RPI 74) out of the Ivy.
It’s awfully hard to go undefeated in Patriot League play, but could this team do it? They’re a lot more than Prosser. And if they do, could they really get that 8/9 seed?
