There are some very good academic options available outside the top 25. Arguably more so than on the men's side.

Three of the women’s D1 programs above are top 25 - keep up.
Ok, you got me! I clearly stated this was RPI and included the reference link. Are you adding anything of substance to this thread or just salt?
Well you keep making references to polls that mean absolutely nothing so I’m here for you.
Wins & losses in the context of strength of opponent mean nothing? Please tell us whether we should worship the AP or coaches poll. LOL.
Maybe because those rankings don't conform to any sense of reality? RPI listed Syracuse as the #1 team last year when the team didn't even make the national championship. RPI ranked NW third this year when it lost to BC in the national championship. See where I'm going with this?
Plenty of teams with high RPI rankings that aren't part of the NCAA tourney discussion smart guy. Why is that? Hmmm ...
Because more than half (15 of 29) of the playoff slots are awarded automatically to conference champions. In some cases, complete joke conferences.
Robert Morris (RPI 96), LIU (78) and Mt. St. Mary's (60) made the playoffs this way, crowding out some very good teams.
I'm happy to be your smart guy any time!
