In more recent years, road wins count for more in the RPI. Also, if you play a non-Division I team, the win doesn't count in an RPI...but I believe a loss does.

But again, when a team has a good RPI but a bad SOS over 100 (like Harvard), it's usually a huge strike against them for an at-large bid.
Evidently so. It still would have been interesting for them to have a shot. They would not have won it but maybe they would have eked out a win or two.
