What are the conferences in D1 and which have the best and worst baseball? It would be helpful if you know about D2 too.

What I find interesting about the Warren Nolan RPI is how the conference RPI changes from year to year. I've followed my son's former conference for the last 10 years or so. It has moved around quite a bit over the years.
The Ivy League seems to be very, very high in this version. At the top, the difference in numbers are narrow, but I don't know how the heck SEC can be anything but #1 right now.

Here's the NCAA official RPI by team before the tournament last year: https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/baseball/d1/rpi
Not sure there is any meaningful difference between the SEC, ACC, and Big 12.
Not sure how the Warren Nolan formula works, but in the NCAA version the Ivy League had a high of #36, half the league in the Top 130 (out of 299) -- and no teams in the bottom 80 -- so a middle-of-the-pack ranking seems about right.

Their bottom three drag the overall RPI down.
