I think they probably consider all that. I'm having faith, though.
The main reason I feel good is that all three MWC teams should end up top 30 RPI, and I'm having faith that of those three, BYU will be the most deserving of the top pick after we knock AFA off at home, earn an outright conf championship, and then make it to MWC championship game only to lose a tough one on UNLV's home court.
If selection committee is looking at three MWC teams all with starting seeds of 8 or better and BYU is the most deserving, I'm thinking we keep our nice RPI placement and end up no worse than a 9 and I'm going to bet on a 7. That's granted we do what I say and end up with an RPI in the #20ish range.
