Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

i had a discussion about rpi the other day and i said i couldnt care less about it. the sec is the toughest conference in the country and that gives you a built in advantage.

i honestly never look at rpi when it comes to baseball..now basketball is a different story. i think rpi matters alot more in sec basketball. jmo.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

I think Upstate is better than that ranking

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

I have to agree that I don't follow RPI in baseball all that much. We stay in the top 10 most of the season, we are pretty much a guarantee for a top 8. RPI of course will come into account when choosing say spots 6-8, especially if the teams are fairly close as far as records, and usually choosing some of the "bubble" teams.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

I honestly never follow it either...I saw one of the media guys post this link on twitter so thought I would share...

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

In all honesty I agree we are probably #1.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

we better sweep mizzou

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

I didn't realize you were such a numbers person. This is some good stuff. Thanks.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

Yep....being in the top 8 gets us home games throughout the playoffs.....huge. I will be thrilled if we are #5 at the end of the season. That should get us slightly easier opponents, but at that time of year, they're all good.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

Also #1 on Warren Nolan's RPI listing as well.....

Davidson is around 220th in both polls, so the next few games through this weekend will drop us a bit....

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

RPI in baseball is extremely flawed and sadly the NCAA relies on it way too much when it comes to national seeding.

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

Something is funny with those rankings. 6-7 Michigan State is #6? 3-0 Dartmouth is #15?

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

Austin Peay #5?...

Re: Boyds World RPI...
 

They dropped in the RPI to number 26

We have good reason not to follow it.
