2007 Softball Polls

[lcitsh]

As far as our seeding, it's simple. Strength of schedule. Our geography beats us up having to play so many Southland schools and we didn't do ourselves any favors with the teams we were inviting in for the La. Classics, etc. Playing in the NFCA, the Kia and going to Arizona wasn't enough to offset all that. When it comes to seeding, rankings don't mean squat, unfortunately.

There seems to be an upgrade in this year's non-conference schedule, so I expect our SOS will be determined by how we play against these teams and how the rest of the conference does in their non-conference schedule.

There is an upgrade in the teams we're bringing in for the first two tournaments and the staff gets kudos for that.

Unfortunately, the NFCA screwed us out of the tournament in GA., and that was replaced by a weak tournament at Northwestern State.

So it's kind of a wash through no fault of ours.

How were we screwed?

I noticed you have our updated rank, allow me elaborate if you will: After beating all three teams in the 21st Annual LA Classic, (even 8 run ruling them all once), we have moved up to #13 in the polls! GEAUX CAJUNS!
Hey LSwho? put your money where your mouth is and play us in something that you don't dominate us in (their football budget is 55 million compared to our measly 8 million)! Oh, what's that, Skip Bertman says yall don't have to play us in regular season?... ok, we'll just beat you in the regionals!
WE'VE GOT BRIGNAC, NOT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also the Great Stefanie Lotief has a better winning percentage than LSwho's Yvette G. and is I believe #3 against softball coaches. It was in the LaLouisiana Alumni magazine.

1. Mike Candrea Arizona .835
2. Sue Enquist UCLA .834

cjr, you are a liar. wait until evangeline tiger hears about this. et will set you straight. why are you irresponsibly lying and miscontruing the truth.

ET is going to roast cjr. This is pure blaphemy and made up lies. And I assure you we will hear from ET... there are search engines on grade school PCs... it is obvious that ET comes on this site, searches for "L S U", contorts her face, corrects all of us "pepper lovers", and reminds us of how much more brick and mortar you can purchase when you get all of the money in the state.

I also expect BSDetector to be standing next to ET with his propeller beenie, holding a roll of toilet paper to assist in the cleanup. What a couple of azz clowns.
