Ok, I finished with all of the data, the results are in.

-----Alpha Average RPI-----
:::::::::::::::::98.35:::::::::::::::::
-----Zeta Average RPI-----
::::::::::::::::98.48::::::::::::::::

I'm not going to disclose each teams individual RPI because of how big a part the Spreads are to the formula, but I will tell you this. The method I use for measuring the accuracy of my RPI's is to enter my prediction for each conferences playoff teams, and then see how closely it matches to my predictions (8 and under ranking in conference obviously being a playoff team). Here are my matchings.

Alpha: 6/8 teams matched my prediction with RPI
Zeta: 7/8 teams matched my prediction with RPI (the only team @SPART missed was the Samoa Flying Foxes, who were ranked 9th in Zeta) aka missed by one.

I'm very happy with the rankings so far, and they should become even more accurate as the season goes on.

I'll give you the top 6 making the playoffs in some fashion, final two entries are going to have a really tough time.

I think Olden's poised for a fair season, it wouldn't shock me to see them 6-7.
Chilicothe, now, I have concerns about.

But keep in mind that the Samoa Flying Foxes, which I predicted were my final playoff team, were ranked 9th in Zeta.

You know who I'm predicting to get 8th?
It's a homer pick, but I'm going with the Solomon Islands Alchemy.
Sleep on them, and you WILL lose.

I tend to not sleep on my opponents, it's bad for my back.
