Run Rule in the 5th
8-0 run rule. Thank you, Alexa.
It's over. The Cajuns and JMU have now played seven games against each other. Cajuns 52. JMU 14.
Like I said, like brother, like sister . . .Quote:

Great job Cajuns.
The Cajuns have just passed (temporarily) UCLA in the official RPI ... now at #10. But it is still tightly packed. Many more games today that will impact these rankings.

Brian, I noticed that Chattanooga is now back in the top 75 base RPI. We get a bonus for that, do we not?Quote:

I’m assuming we need to pull for ASU vs UCLA; but what about Stanford vs Cal? Golden Bears all the way?Quote:

What was our RPI on selection day last year? #12?Quote:

We are still behind Missouri (.6627 to .6615). UCLA is now at .6596.
The Cajuns currently have a total RPI bonus of .0229. Missouri has an RPI bonus of .0230. Both teams have RPI bonus games on the edge of tiers. Missouri is close to having some games move from .0020 to .0026 bonus. Whereas, the Cajuns are at risk of dropping bonuses (La Tech and Chattanooga). Colorado State is at #85.

#11 ... just behind #10 Texas ... and well ahead of #12 Alabama.Quote:

It was obvious that the Cajuns were not going to qualify as a national seed last year ... for those that paid attention to the selection criteria.

Per my writeup analysis the other day, Cal is not a threat. We want Stanford to lose. Cal is a #2 seed. Conference record is very poor.Quote:

Talking too yourself again? They warned me about you.Quote:

Also, am I right in assuming we want Arkansas out of the SEC Tournament as soon as possible?
