One thing is obvious. "Eye Test" does not figure in to the RPI. All I know is you had better win or if you lose it better be to a really good team.

Starting in 2018-19, the formula will be as follows for all sports:
Each game RPI = GR*((0.35 × WP) + (0.35 × OWP) + (0.30 × OOWP))
Total RPI is summative
GR=Game Result. 1.0 for a win, .5 for a tie, 0 for a loss
WP=Winning Percentage of the Team being reviewed
OWP=Opponents Winning Percentage
OOWP=Opponents’ Opponents Winning Percentage

Unless I'm reading it wrong, quality of the opponent doesn't matter in a loss. Whether it's the Patriots or School for the Blind, a loss is a valued as a zero in the RPI.
