BB Final: Louisiana 5, Jackson State 0

[Policarp]

Painful to watch our hitters "try" to hit curve balls. 2nd time thru order and no one adapting.

Our boys are playing another dangerous game late in the season.

I am having flashbacks of the Jackson State pitcher shutting out the Cajuns in the first game of the 2014 regional.

2-0 Cajuns Btm 5th

[zeppelincajun]

A win tonight over Jackson State would provide the Cajuns a modest bump in RPI of .00147 . enough to move up one spot in the RPI rankings (as they stand now and all other things being equal).

This is an example of a low risk/modest reward from the RPI perspective. Despite Jackson State having an RPI ranking of 269 (out of 305 schools), their 26-16 record actually increases the Cajuns' SOS (slightly) by .00026. Couple this with a win and you have a modest bump in RPI. If it were a road win, the RPI jump would be an additional .00106 . for a total of .00253.

This is also an example where playing a team like #269 Jackson State helps your RPI more than playing certain teams ranked 100 spots higher . or more.

Hopefully we keep having the Tigers on the schedule. Dan mentioned aside from last year we hadn’t seen them since 2015. If I heard correctly, since their coach arrived in ‘07 they’ve had a winning record every year. That’s a pretty solid bet each year that they won’t hurt you.

2-0 Cajuns Top 7th

[GoneGolfin]

We have swung at a lot of ball 4's tonight . resulting in a number of popups. The last one with the bases loaded.

Take the walks that are given to you. Especially when it is an RBI.

Cajuns holding on to 2-0 lead, bottom of 8th. Jackson St. pitcher did a good job.

That was painful

The most upset I’ve been after a Cajuns baseball game. I’m sure many felt the same. The words “are you serious” were mentioned about 100 times on the ride home.

[Cajunchuck]

Not the best offensive game by the Cajuns but I will take the win. Pitchers did their job. The other team can't win if they don't score.
