College Basketball Power Index
The College Basketball Power Index (BPI) is a men's team rating that accounts for a team's scores in all D-I games, by location, result, the strength of their opponent, and whether any of their top five players (by minutes per game) was missing.
How it differs from the RPI:
- Scoring margin, adjusted for pace, matters
- Strength of Schedule (SOS) calculation uses more information
- De-weights games with missing key players
