Ok, looking at the 5 teams that we are currently losing the comparison with, I see the following:
BU - Can't flip, not going to happen, don't bother trying to figure out how it could.
Michigan - Only by catching them in RPI will we flip this one. Not likely. They are .0177 ahead of us.
Notre Dame - Only by catching them in RPI will we flip this one. Less likely than Michigan. They are .0287 ahead of us.
Vermont - Only by catching them in RPI will we flip this one. Very possible, they are only .0094 ahead of us.
Denver - We can flip this by catching them in RPI(they are .0054 ahead of us). We could also catch them by flipping the TUC/COp comparison with a Sioux sweep over Sconnie and a DU loss or tie vs CC(this would also flip the RPI, just solidifying our position versus them).
Another thing that I think is important is that if teams currently above us lose comparisons against other teams(not necessarily just us) they are currently winning improves our standing as well. I took a look at Vermont's comparisons. If New Hampshire takes 3+ pts from them this weekend, Vermont will lose the comparisons with St. Lawrence, Minnesota and Minnesota-Duluth. We would leapfrog over them in the PWR based on those outcomes alone.
Of course, we need to take care of what we can control first and foremost. Let's not need the help from others, but be graciously willing to accept it.
