Another home sweep! 4-1 on the week!

[RaginScotsman]

Might be time to invest in a new broom. The old one is worn out.


A 5 game lead on the pack. That’s crazy.

What a big series next weekend.

[Big Buds]

Great series win! The bats need to wake up before Conway.

Figured that with a big week coming up, agreed glad it worked out.

He can rest some people mid-week. But resting some today almost came back to bite.

Yeah I get it’s a conference game but What’s worst for our rpi? Losing to Marshall or losing to SLU? I have no clue but maybe that has a factor in it?

[JamesBond]

Anyone have any thoughts on where this Cajuns pitching staff ranks between other Cajuns staffs? It’s got top be pretty high up there

Conference is most important for Cajuns winning the conference.

RPI raw number would be the same - regardless of WHO you beat at home (in this example) or WHO you lose to (at home)... Raw number (which determines rank) is calculated by your own WP (more weight given to home losses and road wins and less weight given to home wins and road losses), Opponents WP, and Opponents Opponents WP. That's it.

So - if the Cajuns end up losing at home to SLU Wednesday (with a win vs Marshall today)... Compare that to the opposite loss vs Marshall today and win vs SLU on Wednesday. RPI raw number is the same. Doesn't matter.

Same if we had beaten Tech this past Wednesday and dropped one vs Marshall vs what we did... RPI raw number would be the same.
