May 6, 20223 yr Wulaw’s heroes have got their fucking teeth kicked in. They are as shitty as we all knew.
May 8, 20223 yr Bobcats sweep ULM to go 4-0 on the week. 38-11 on the season. Big series coming up against Louisiana. Sunbelt Conference race is pretty tight with 2 weekends left. TXST 20-4 GA Southern 18-6 Louisiana 17-7
May 10, 20223 yr Man, this is depressing. Imagine handing the ball to a guy who's given up 76 ER in 24 innings... https://alcornsports.com/sports/baseball/stats/2022?path=baseball
May 12, 20223 yr A&M cancels their last midweek game of the season because they didn't want it to hurt their RPI

I know the schedule was probably set by the previous head coach but doesn't the intended strength of schedule count? Stop scheduling low 'rpi' teams.
May 12, 20223 yr It also makes more sense now why they 'cancelled' their Tuesday game against Sam Houston State a few weeks ago due to "inclement weather" after it barely rained.

May 12, 20223 yr As much as I hate TAM, I don't really blame him. As long as the selection committee uses a system that rewards them fo not playing a game, they are justified to do it. Hopefully they paid them off. It sucks because schools try and throw a bone to the smaller schools in their state. And why not? You get to play younger kids and its a big deal for the little schools. But you get so punished by playing teams ranked super low in the RPI. In my mind, if you play the #1 team in the country and the #350 and go 2-0, that's way more impressive than going 2-0 vs. the #100 team. But that's not how RPI works.

In NCAA hockey, they have a rule where you can have certain games excluded from the RPI calculations if even winning the game will hurt your RPI.
May 12, 20223 yr Just now, Hookem2147 said: Where do you typically need to be RPI wise to host? Inside the top 20? Top 16. But the committee will tell you every year that they don't rely on RPI that much.
May 12, 20223 yr 1 minute ago, Beau Vine said: Top 16. But the committee will tell you every year that they don't rely on RPI that much. Interesting. Looking at the top 16 RPI teams right now there is a team with a losing record in conference play (Florida) and a .500 in SEC play Vandy team. DBU is also top 16 in RPI due to their SOS but won’t likely host. The last few hosting spots are going to be really interesting.
May 15, 20223 yr Bobcats take the first two from the Ragin Cajuns to reach 40 wins, 7-5 last night, 6-4 today thanks to 3 in the B8. Ole Miss beat LSU twice today. F$U-Miami split too. UGa beat TN 9-3 and OSU trails AZ 5-2 in 9th. Piggy has won the first two over Vandy.
May 15, 20223 yr Took my son to the Bobcats game last night. They look impressive. Their shortstop can snag. Pretty damn good BBQ as well. Fun stadium and great eye candy.

May 15, 20223 yr TXST completes the hard-fought sweep of Louisiana, now at 41-11 (tied for school record) and 24-4 in SunBelt. Really hoping to be able to catch the Cats in a regional game. Fingers crossed for #2 seed in College Station.
May 16, 20223 yr The NCAA should issue a statement that for purposes of the postseason the RPI will be calculated as if the games had been played

Would love to see them kick aggy ass.

May 18, 20223 yr Coastal? Looks like they went 37-19 but missed the tournament the year after they won it all.
