This is the strongest the REST of the Sunbelt has ever been going into conference play.

By the end of the season Troy, Louisiana, and UTA will take a hit, but the rest of the conference will rise.

No, it isn't the strongest ever. There have been years with UL, USA and TxSt all in the top 30 or so.

Let Turbine speak without any data to back up his comments.

3 teams do not a conference make.

The Sun Belt has never had a season where every team entered conference play in the top 200 (201)

Not at the same time.

You may be thinking of 2014 when LOUISIANA, South AL, and Western KY all finished in the top 30.

Louisiana of course fell during conference play.

Even then Middle Tennessee climbed UP to 222 during conference play.

North Texas and FIU climbed into the top-100 during conference play.

Troy and FAU moved way up in the top-200 (they entered conference play in the top 200) to 122 and 123 respectively.

While ULM moved up into the top 200 to 163.

Hey guys, who cares how strong the Belt is, that is out of our control.

Bottom line is we accomplished what we set out to do when Glasco made this schedule. We are #1 in RPI, now we just need to handle business in conference and put ourselves in position to host for a trip to the WCWS!!!!

Good point.

When the NCAA unveiled the first RPI rankings for college softball Tuesday, anyone who wondered why UL coach Gerry Glasco put together such a tough pre-Sun Belt schedule found out why.

The No. 6-ranked Ragin’ Cajuns have the No. 1 RPI in the country.

Highly disappointed the nitty gritty and team sheets haven’t been posted yet.

the real question is why isnt our poll number higher? since usually it is better than our rpi ranking
