We absolutely have to sweep this weekend to keep up our RPI, right?

_ We absolutely have to sweep this weekend to keep up our RPI, right? _

To keep up the RPI number ... yes, nearly a certainty (barring some incredible outcomes from Cajun opponents (OWP)). As far as the RPI ordinal rank is concerned, this depends more on teams around them. But most likely a sweep is required to keep the ordinal rank as well.

If results hold the way they are going, Louisiana may pass Oregon State in the RPI and if so, would likely come in at #40 in tomorrow's RPI.
