Rice is hot garbage this year. Wish we were catching them at a better time

Maybe it rains alot that week. Worked out for us a few times recently

Texas State has been in the top 25 for 6 weeks, they are fist in the conference and they are also in our division. Beating them would be vital to an at large

The selection committee does not use the polls in their deliberations for at large bids. Texas State is fifth in the rpi rankings in the conference behind the Cajuns, South Alabama and Georgia State, whom they have not played, and Georgia Southern, to whom they lost 2 of 3. I did include Texas State in the list of teams that it is more important to beat than Georgia State or LSU.

First, The selection committee uses whatever they want. If you are on the bubble (which we would be) they absolutely start comparing resumes. If we want in, we better beat Texas State on the road, if we want to win the division, we better beat texas state on the road, if we want to win the conference, we better beat Texas state on the road. They are currently 53 and we are 52, they will at least be Quad 2 and quite possibly Quad 1 by the time we play them.

It's probably more about avoiding bad losses than getting many more quality wins. At 20-15, the Cajuns need to beat Appalachian State (road), UTA (home), Little Rock (home), Rice (2/road), Nicholls (home) and Texas State (road) more than they need to beat LSU (road) and Georgia State (road).

That's why I said I was guessing.

Sun Belt went back to the old way this year. No more divisions.

So baseball “no longer has divisions”.

The Sun Belt does not

Baseball does not have divisions

Sure it does.

There is the division between "we should not have lost" and "that's baseball".

[CajunVic]

Sure it does.

There is the division between "we should not have lost" and "that's baseball".

That is more derision than division.

Correct, only fair weather fans wouldn't know that. SMH
