Week 4 softball rpi

[CajunVic]

... and when you are talking about #1 seed consideration, it is much more about record vs. the RPI Top 25 and RPI Top 10 (peer group) than record vs. RPI Top 50. The Cajuns have no resume here. So, unless the selection committee does something remarkably different than in years past (not likely), this is a dangerous #2 seed that a host team does not want to see.

I think you are spot on. We will not host and no host will be happy to get us considering that our upside has not been really tested with our schedule.

UTA held UCLA to 2 runs, A&M and OK State to 1 each, and held Arkansas to just 4 runs in each game against them, losing 1-4 and winning 7-4. We’re not the only good team to have had scoring held in check by them.

Even when they got swept by Troy, runs given up each game was 2, 7 and 2.

We’ve gotten multiple low scoring games. Sure we’ve won all but one Brokeback game. Nice that you showed P5 close low score games. You do realize in the real world those teams play numerous high ranked teams to add to their resume. Our claim to fame is dominating wins since this year our schedule is not too strong. So what’s your point?

I think it's safe to say that these guys are just favoring the rankings as opposed to RPI. Have us as a 10 seed paired with Florida. I'll take it:

Our continued lack of scoring against lackluster teams will also not help in the eyeball test. We're winning, but not dominating these lesser teams.

But at the other side. Even if we beat these lesser teams by 15 runs it still won't matter. They look at wins and loses.
