Should we pray for rain in Moanroe in a couple of weeks?

Should we pray for rain in Moanroe in a couple of weeks?

"Rain out? I can get us a rain out. . Hundred bucks says I can get us a rain out for tomorrow."

[Turbine]

But much better than any opinion method I've ever seen used by selection committee's.

You are right. The year UL had the #11 RPI they still found a way to bump the Cajuns down a notch.

This was with Louisiana's AD at the head of the proverbial table.

What year was that turbine?

[RaginScotsman]

What year was that turbine?

We were 13 and Auburn was 4 in 2015. Should have won that thing too. It was an epic meltdown in the circle in game 1 that set the tone. We lost 12-11 in 8 innings after blowing a big lead late.

Not sure if that was what Turbine was talking about, but that Super regional came to mind.

What year was that turbine?

If I recall it was 2012, Scott Farmers last year on the committee, the year he served as head of the selection committee.

If I recall correctly.

I think that was the year we went to Tempe for a super. Arizona State must have been 2 or 3. Shut them out the first game and then lost back to back. To give you an idea of how good the Cal wins earlier this season would have been if it were 2012, they were the #1 overall seed that year.

We were #12 in the rpi at selection time with a measly 4-0 record against the rpi top 25. Of the teams that jumped us for seeding, they all had more wins against the rpi top 25. We also had the #44 non conference SOS. Dropping 2 spots for seeding wasn’t a bad decision.

Scott being on the committee means nothing.

[CajunEXPRESS]

Scott being on the committee means nothing.

What made Farmer suck was his comments after the bad seeding decision. Something about how he felt fine with the process and our spot. I’ve never heard another AD not lobbying for their teams for better seeding even after the decision.

If what you say is true, that wasn't the year.

UL had the nations #1 OOC RPI the year I was thinking of.

Meant nothing. Of course that's true, UL's seeding came out of committee below every previous indicator.

He had to step out of the room when UL was considered.

However, if you're not promoting your team "for better seeding even after the decision" you weren't selling your team even in casual conversation situations.

Selection committees are not sequestered jury.

[CajunEXPRESS]

It’s plain that Farmer messed that up. I’m stunned sometimes how people overlook what their man does and doesn’t do.

[ZoomZoom]

Well, remember when baseball finished #1 in polls, but got 6th seeded. Sunbelt is gonna sunbelt.

My hooked on phonics class has failed me.

All I can remember is Louisiana succeeded (sixseeded)

[31Ragin97]

has anyone ever thought of factoring in “cost per win” into rpi?
