RPI Watch

Well it looks like our hopes of getting Eastern Illinois back into the top 150 is fading.
Top 6
(#119)Jacksonville State 11
(#153) Eastern Illinois 2
Not sure how much this would help us anyway.

Well.... we could pull for UL-Monroe to win one more. They are close to 150, and if they get there we can have 8 more wins vs the top 150.

Man just the thought of pulling for them makes me want to puke, but they are #151.

CC up on McNeese 5-4 in the bottom of the 6th.

Since when does record vs. RPI top 150 come into play? I know record vs. Top 25, Top 50 and Top 100 matter for the résumé...

Mcneese takes the lead over TAMU-CC going to the 9th 7-5.

Campo to answer your question, I dont know, but I am looking for our opponents to continue to move up in RPI to help us.

Regardless of Top 150 or not, McNeese adds 2 more to our OWP (50% of the formula) with a win. So geaux Pokes.

and they hold off TAMU-CC 7-5

Thanks Mcneese.

I think it only comes into play if we lose to some one outside the top 150. I am not Brain and do not play Brain on tv, but I think we would want all of the teams we play win-lose record to be the best that they can be.

It is not record vs. RPI 150 that is important. It is reducing the # of losses vs. the RPI 150+ (bad losses) that is important ... Along with (secondarily) reducing the # of games played against this weaker tier of competition.

Case in point ... you may have seen me mention on several occasions the (5) bad losses Miami has and how it hurts their bid for a national seed.
