Appears that the pwr is not changed.
Cornell lost RPI in the PWR. Because it was in OT and on the road, it wasn’t as bad as it otherwise would have been against the 44th ranked team. But we dropped from ~.5528 to .5500, meaning we are closer to 16, and farther from 14, than we were when the night began.

A drop is a drop - though it came from SOS, not from the result itself. Since the tie on the road is worth .6000. If you win, you're not allowed to drop from it - so if you do, the result is discarded.
Wait, I’m confused—are you saying that there is a rule that a team cannot lose RPI from a tie on the road? If BC tied Stonehill on the road, their RPI/PWR would be unaffected?

I said the opposite ... I said if you win you're not allowed to drop from it.


Cornell dropped - but it didn't come from its own Win% - which for the game, is .600. It came from its SOS (i.e. opp win%, and opp-opp win%).
The drop, in part, did come from Cornell's win percentage. Adding 6/10 of a win and 4/10 of a loss to Cornell's win percentage prior to the game would drop the win % for any team over .600 in winning percentage.
adamw seems to be claiming that this drop was erased per a PWR rule that negates any drop a team would receive from a “bad win.” But Cornell didn’t win, it tied, so even if that were the rule, I don’t understand why it’s relevant here.

That isn't what I said, in any way, shape or form ...

I never said this drop was erased -- whatsoever.

I'm well aware they tied.

I'm not sure what you're not understanding - so it's hard to explain any further.

Cornell's RPI for the game was .600 -- not withstanding SOS factors. ... .600 is higher than their RPI going into the game -- THUS -- if they dropped in RPI, it was due to the SOS portions of their RPI. Not the tie itself.

Had they won and dropped - THEN the entire result gets thrown out. That is not the case here.

Not sure how much clearer I can make this.
makes sense to me now, you kind of just said it in a roundabout way

Sorry, but your post was actually very unclear. You said the drop did “not come from the result itself.” You then said “if you win, you’re not allowed to drop from it.” The clear implication is that the latter statement has something to do with the former—otherwise, why bring that part up at all? That’s what caused the confusion.

Even if your post were clear, I don’t understand the point you were trying to make. The statement “Cornell’s RPI went down because they tied Dartmouth” covers the fact they (i) tied and (ii) played Dartmouth. Whether the drop in RPI was due to (i) or (ii) does not alter the reality that Cornell would NOT have dropped had they WON. So yeah, technically Cornell’s win% didn’t drop and their SOS did, but who cares? The point is that their RPI would NOT have dropped had they WON the game. Therefore, a tie against Dartmouth was a bad result.

At this point, I'm hoping BearLover will magically transform into FaceTimer.

Apropos of nothing, and I suspect y'all already knew this, but I've been trying to figure out why the name Cooper Black sounded so darn familiar. I thought it might be a company that makes power tools -- turns out it's a font.
