Thread: Analyzing the Bubble

    Default Re: Analyzing the Bubble

    Cajuns certainly pass the “eye test” and I hate when they use that term. We just look like we belong. I THINK we have done enough to get in but I’ll never trust the committee to do what’s right. Also, how many teams did the SBC get last year? I thought it was 5 but maybe it was 4. I felt like Troy made it along with UL, coastal, tx state and ga southern hosted. Now I’m thinking Troy didn’t make it last year.

    Brain, how many years as the Sun Belt gotten 4 teams in? It’s not unprecedented, but not common. I seem to remember the year we went to the CWS, we got 4-5 teams in.

    How about last year? And that was without Southern Mississippi in the league.

    I would have to go back through my records, but it has happened several times. This is not a barrier.

    Georgia was 11-19 in conference, 11-19 vs. Q1 and 4-6 over their last ten games. Strong overall SOS, but that is due to conference play as their NC SOS leaves something to be desired (78). 8-12 on the road.

    The selection committee has left these types of resumes out of the field even with RPIs in the mid 20's.

    Now this I 100% disagree with. You have had CWS participants that would not have made this field with this sort of arbitrary criteria ... including last year's national champion (Ole Miss).

    Notre Dame is a real threat. They were 15-15 in the #1 RPI conference and 8-11 in Q1 ... including 7-9 vs. the RPI Top 25. They also have a sweep of #9 Virginia to their credit.

    Something that might really hurt them? The #272 NC SOS and 3 Q4 losses (Cajuns also have 2).

    Troy did not make the field.
