Thread: COASTAL

  1. Default Re: COASTAL

    Fair point, i guess it comes down to philosopy, is seeding a summary of the past or a prediction of future, so i dont know which is best. But it is clear that rpi is silly, and is a self licking ice cream cone.........however....back to your question......yes.if we were number one and lost, i honestly dont think we would ever be given that chance again.....

    You are seeded by what you have done, as it should be. The RPI is a mathematical formula that everyone can see. You think we should let humans do it? Because we know how that will turn out. I didn't ask if you thought we would ever get it again....If we were rewarded the number one seed but lost in Omaha would you be calling for the committee to change their procedure because we didn't win it all?Rpi and seeding is simply a starting point, you still have to go out there and do it.

    Cool, but humans are still doing it. And yes, they would change, but they dont aleays even stick to their own process....Even with rpi, coastal was 12 th but didnt host. Look at basketball the big boys didnt get what they needed out of rpi so they went to bpi to help their cause. Ridiculous

    Their stupid formula got us a host because if it was humans we don't sniff a host spot. At least the rankings aren't hiding in a room somewhere... The RPI is a formula that everyone can see, schedule for and manipulate the way they choose. It's not perfect but about as close as you can get, or we could go back to when SEC teams didn't have to leave their own ballpark except for conference games. Humans picked the host sites... Not the RPI.

    It's about as fair as it's going to get. Baseball has a lot of parity up and down the ladder. Once you get into super regionals and beyond, everyone has the assets. This CWS is not doing anything but proving that case.

    Right now Florida losing to TT 2/0. IMO a Gator loss puts Coastal in a very enviable position. Yes they still get TCU tonight but I'm thinking they might have a real shot at bringing home a national title. That's good for the SBC and UL.

    Will sunbelt get the credit if they arent here yet? They never mentioned sunbelt when denver won hockey while in sunbelt


  8. Default Re: COASTAL

    No, but the team would carry the credit. It's a good thing to have.

    Florida threatening to get back in game runners at first and second no outs. Batter just moved them to second and third and one out.

    They would be called the defending national champion all year next year while playing in the SBC. A lot of ball left... A LOT.

    Fla down to their last three outs.

    CC has as much left as anyone. I'm thinking the Gators had enough pitching to knock them out, but can't crack red raiders pitching today

    So does TCU and this is their 3rd straight trip to Omaha. They will not be an easy out. I'm not saying they can't but there is a lot of ball left. Whoever wins between them will be in the driver seat...1 win don't put you in that seat IMO.

    Unless it backfires and the pundits say they were national champs last year, but now get swept by sunbelt teams in the new tigue, how did they fall so fast? A warning for others to not join, lol
