Albany Great Danes Top Ranked Team in Nation by ESPN's BPI Despite 12-15 Record (thebiglead.com)

Quote

The Albany Great Danes are coming off back-to-back wins against Binghamton and New Hampshire so there is reason for optimism in New York's Capital Region. However, with a 12-15 record and just three games remaining on their schedule, you probably think they'll need to win the America East Tournament to get invited to March Madness. And that is true, unless the selection committee weighs BPI quite heavily because the Great Danes are suddenly the top ranked team in America by that metric.

What am I missing? Where does it show UA top rated BPI? Looks to me BPI UA -4.2??? Am I reading the chart wrong? Puts UA near the bottom NOT top?

Sarcasm.  There was clearly a computing error at ESPN, so the media world is not making fun of Albany rather ESPN. Right now, according to ESPN, we are the highest team in the land.  We should be in the low-mid 200's at this point, according to the proper analytics.
