LOL, fortunately we weren't on that list. And an under 500 ACC team should make the NCAAT? (tic)
William & Mary has a good baseball team. Gotta go see them play.
Well we are playing good baseball and have a shot at the NCAAT. Of course Charlie Brown is laughing at us and waiting.
This weekend 6PM, 4PM and 1PM scheduled times for Miami. Weather looks ok and low chance of rain delays, if any should be brief if forecast holds.
Miami has had a tough...
There won't be a 14-16 ACC team after the ACCT. The ACCT will probably be the decider for a team or two. Aaron Fitt has over rated us many times in the past and is probably a bit gun shy with us. But his opinion is valuable since he knows far more about the other non-ACC teams than probably...
Thanks. Perfectly shows point that IFF we go 500 in ACC we have 32 RPI (probably) and are in the NCAAT. (Not considering ACCT.) We control our destiny, it's just a hard one coming up.
The Warren Nolan rankings are probably so unstable since we are seeing the current predictions as they...
Great post. In answer to everyone's bitching about RPI, it's the game within the game. Schedule games with RPI in mind if you want better seeding. ***** about if you don't. But our OOC scheduling this year was incompetent from an RPI POV.
Concerning our end of season RPI, I turn to...
StatBroadcast is my go-to for stats (along with Warren Nolan). The 4/14/24 VT game is there.

Looks like our RPI is 61. And Warren Nolan has us at 14-16 in ACC. With a predicted RPI of 38! Coming up in the world. Just win baby.
Great series win, almost unbelievable sweep. We have momentum and will need it with who we have coming. But at 500 ACC and those teams, we control our destiny.
@YoungSting and @jeb84 had it with the two win prediction for the series.
I think we have an outside (20%) chance of sneaking into the NCAAs. The team has shown they don't give up. Then get a top seed away. Rinse and repeat.
I could be positive and say we are getting closer every game to a new head coach. Then I'll kick the ball and go all in on change.
IIWII. UVa gave us 3 unearned runs and we didn't win. We gave up one unearned. Since we out hit them 10-9 and left 11 on as opposed to 8 it was a tossup. Comes down to small things.
Back to one below 500 ACC. Win today and it's a successful weekend.
We and Miami are similar this season. Talent but not results.
Our pitching (and posting) has been bipolar. Either we become consistent in pitching (in a good way) or we don't make the NCAAs again. Nothing MUST happen, IIWII. Of course I'm manic after the win but will not be surprised when...
I was at the game and it was marvelous. I am not an enlightened baseball fan; my appreciation goes up largely proportional to whether we win. So I'm very appreciative this morning.
We won. Convincingly. Finateri threw lots of strikes (73 of 99!). Many of the UVa hits were soft and...
Big time ACC baseball this weekend. Last two ACC series they have won 2-1 (UNC & @L'Ville) So I think we'll take one. But we are 1-6 against Quad 1 teams, so that's a stretch. We are 1 below 500 in ACC (7-8) but that is against largely less capable teams. If only we had the UVa coaching...
All we need is more runs than Awburn. Surprised at their batting average - tonight through 3 they are 500 with 2 BB.
We were down o-8 now 3-8. Come on Cavemen.
Update: Ellis grand slam. That's a Caveman attitude. 7-8.
Best series response of the year. I know we swept NC State, but to come back after 1-11 and win two is fabulous.
Of course, VT will pay the price having lost 5 of their last 6 ACC games. They may not be top 20 as their RPI has dropped to 34.
I have no idea how we'll do the second half of...
