I will challenge your comment re beating teams with better than .500 records. In the eyes of the committee, the RPI is just so much more important, and Iona has 4 wins vs top 100 teams and a fifth vs a top 130 team. I think the committee is more impressed with a team that's 0-3 but played OK vs Duke, Texas and UConn than a team that's 3-0 with wins over Morgan State, Prairie View and Howard.

We will learn more about Iona in these next 4 games (all against top 100 teams). Again, 3 of those 4 are on the road (Kentucky, Seton Hall, Fresno State), so even going 1-2 in these games wouldn't kill us, as long as we then come home and beat Manhattan. But yes, we need to beat Kentucky to be ranked.
