Sagarin still has some of the 2015-16 year weighted in. When this ages out (dont know when, it's well overdue) you'll see UL shoot up here. Sunbelt in general will improve.
Ah, that explains a lot: i saw on the @ruston board they have a thread based on sagarin rankings. In it, we are at virtuallty the same ranking as the mutts, when of course that is not at all the case. Guess you have to hang your hat on something when your team breaks the loosing streak of one of the worst teams currently playing, utsa.....in rustonia. Lol.
Delaware State's 1 point road victory over a team with a winning record bumped the men up 3 spots.

Our women have a lot of work to do. We have played arguably the worst schedule in Division 1, and have not looked very good at all against teams with a pulse. Fortunately for us, there are only four or five of those in the conference, so we should be able to finish in the top half of the conference.
It looks like Minnesota's road loss to Michigan State was more harmful than Georgia's road win over Mississippi was helpful.

The women's overall schedule strength is #283 out of 349 teams, it's #218 in non-conference play (thanks to Notre Dame). They have played 3 conference opponents, 2 of whom are among the lowest in the nation (#322 Arkansas State and #339 ULM). There are only 4 teams in the conference with winning records (Cajuns among them), and, at the moment, the SBC is the 19th rated conference in the rpi. It's pretty easy to assume, at this point, that the women will need to win the conference tournament to get into the NCAA tournament.

Lady Cajuns deserve their own identity and a return to better coverage.

It seems to me that, on the men's side, Texas-Arlington is the only viable at large possibility. UTA and Little Rock seem to be in position to be in consideration on the women's side. Cajuns will have to do some major work if they want to be considered for either NIT.
Well, fwiw, we are the best rpi in the state
