Just looking at the past weeks of 4A RPI, and was wondering if someone could explain this, because I just don't understand.  

On 10/18 top 5:   1.  Boyle .69358       5.  Central .62416  

On 10/25 top 5:     2. Central .65780       4.  Boyle .65016  (Boyle dropped from 1 to 5 after Bourbon County could not play for being a red county)

On 10/31 top 5:    3.  Boyle  .67009       4.  Central .64388 (Central did not play that week)

On 11/4 top 5:    3. Boyle .67009 (The same after beating a 3-2 5A Madison Southern Team)      4. Central .64388 (Stayed the same after not playing another game)  

Just curious how Central's RPI doesn't go down after not playing another game.  And Boyle's didn't go up, when the other top 5 teams went up, after winning a game.  

I know that Boyle's OOW is what hurting them right now.  But I don't understand how you miss a game, because you are following the guidelines, and drop so dramatically.  But another team misses a game and thier RPI ddoesn't go up.  Or how Boyle wins a game over a higher class team with a winning record and their RPI doesn't go up at all.  

 

It could be because a team(s) that you had previously beat lost games that week, which would then make them a weaker opponent for RPI purposes.

From my understanding each game cancelled due to Covid goes down as a Win and a Loss. That loss is the only thing I can see that caused them to drop so much. I’m wondering if that will be erased after this week since they are making that game up and barring a huge upset will be a Boyle win. 

The KHSAA posted this link today with a ton of good information. I'm not sure if it will answer your question, @The Rebel of Knights, but it is a very good place to start.
