What about Ole Miss losing a series to the mighty UCF knights and Miss State losing to Tulane? So they get a boost for beating the ranked teams in the opening weekend but they look the other way when they lose to much lesser teams.
1. Ole Miss and Moo State were ranked higher to start with.
2. UCF and Tulane are decent teams. #42 and #55 in ELO right now. Air Force is #232. LSU is their only win.
3. They didn’t “look the other way”. Ole Miss dropped from #1 to #7 and Moo State dropped from #2 to #5

Well, for one, UCF and Tulane are much better than Air Force. Much, much better.
UCF and better don’t belong in the same sentence when talking about baseball. You are joking right? Also what has Tulane done recently to make them much much better than Air Force?
I’m not saying Air Force is good but you act like UCF and Tulane are baseball power houses.
Also apparently ELO doesn’t take into account the eye test because If it did, it would see LSU completely dominating everyone since that first weekend with the bats and the arms.

Touché didn’t realize they were that high to begin with. I though Florida and Vandy were the highest ranked teams at the start. That is my bad.

You can't be serious, right?
UCF and Tulane are in the American, which is a good league. Air Force is in the MWC, which is a terrible league.
Last 5 years - Records
- UCF : 168-125 (57%) (1 NCAA Tournament)
- Tulane : 160-136 (54%) (2 NCAA Tournaments)
- Air Force : 130-138 (49%) (0 NCAA Tournaments)
Last 5 Seasons - Average RPI
- UCF (65.0)
- Tulane (67.4)
- Air Force (169.0)
Yea, UCF and Tulane are significantly better than Air Force. That's not even really debatable.

I don't generally view "good/not great AAC teams" as powerhouses, but maybe we have a different view of the AAC.

The Mississippi State fan in me still does not believe we are truly a good team yet.

The serious lack of upvotes in my baseball threads recently is extremely concerning.
I think you guys need to ruminate on this:

Crap, just saw that T.J. Reeves had hand surgery, will miss several weeks. Wish him a speedy & full recovery, that's a tough blow.

Jaden Hill struggling unbelievably bad. Given up 4 runs, bases loaded and no outs. Just walked in a run.
Posted on 3/5/21 at 1:20 pm to TigerLunatik
Hill walks in another run and only lasts a third of an inning.
5-0 ORU
5-0 ORU

That’s not ideal
Posted on 3/5/21 at 1:27 pm to diddlydawg7
8-0 going to the bottom of the 1st
Posted on 3/5/21 at 1:28 pm to TigerLunatik
Not the best start
Posted on 3/5/21 at 1:28 pm to TigerLunatik
If I’m LSU I throw in one of my less good pitchers to eat up innings. If he can hold them off, great. If not, at least your bullpen isn’t depleted for the next two games.

Not quite sure how ELO rankings are calculated but LSU is def very low. They should easily be in the top 10 if not top 8.
