[QUOTE="Techcaster572, post: 1008865, member: 6770"] I agree completely with this as I'm not sure even a 15-15 acc record puts us in; however, I truly believe if we go 16-14, we are most certainly in the tournament. As for tonight's game, it is huge as you are correct on RPI and KSU sitting at 52 (5 spots above us) and they have mentioned in early tourney projections to make tournament. I truly hope we get the chance to replay the rained-out game from a few weeks back. Also, just because we left Hooville doesn't mean we can relax pitching wise. This KSU team absolutely whipped Clemson on the road earlier this year 18-1 so we need to bring our "A" game tonight imo. Most likely will see Carson on the bump tonight. Btw- Is Cam Hill no longer an option especially against left-handed hitters where he seems to be the most effective? Not to continue the point about the RPI but the RPI that has us at 57 still has us losing to uga at home for the Cool Ray field game. I would think that since Uga is 11 in RPI, that correction would at least bump us up 2-3 slots. Edit: Never mind as I see the RPI has been corrected to reflect the updated changes of a neutral site loss. Man, what could've been if we held on to that 9-3 lead against the mutts going to the 7th. Hold on to win that game and we may well be top 50 in RPI with an overall record of 25-13. Ugghhh.... Also, here are some major problems with the RPI. What matters more 1) Conference record 2) Overall record 3) Home/Road record 4) SOS Some examples that just make little sense San Diego is 31 in RPI Overall record- 26-12 with a SOS of 89 ND is 38 20-18 5-16 ACC Sos - 23 Auburn is 44 in RPI (this is the head scratcher) Overall record- 19-20 2-16 Sec SOS 2 Ohio State is 51 in RPI 19-17 overall SOS- 40 KSU is 52 Overall record 22-16 SOS-76 My point is what really matters....So auburn gets credit for a losing record and a horrendous Sec record because of SOS at 2 so I guess winning isn't the most important stat for RPI. Tech has a brutal schedule for football, will it matter if they can't win the games.... Same with ND SOS doesn't seem to matter for San Diego obviously as they are only two wins better than tech in the loss column but 36 spots higher in RPI So if SOS matters so much, if we perform 6-6 over the last 12 conference games based on the level of competition we face, we should be catapult up the RPI rankings, no? Tech is 57 Overall record 24-14 9-9 acc 66 SOS With Basketball, you have a losing conference record and you won't be making it into the tournament. [/QUOTE]
