When your starter started nailing those breaking balls the game flipped immediately. Man.
That’s kinda been his whole deal all year: when he’s on and hitting his spots, he’s as good a Friday starter as there is. But it seems like it’s an every other week thing (he sucked something awful vs LSU last week). Strangely one of those pitchers who seems to perform better on the road than st home for whatever reason.

He's proved he can go 128 pitches. Bet we see him again Saturday. GG on the win.

Again I just feel bad for Marciano. Dude has been solid all year. Offense fricks him yet again. 6 innings and two runs against a lineup as potent as UGA? He deserved a decision there. Our offense is never on when he is.

Point being that adhering to RPI is like judging a batter solely on batting average when OBP, OPS, and WAR also exist and tell a more accurate story of who a hitter actually is.
Exactly. RPI is an extremely flawed metric.

Georgia is so dang good this season! I already have them and Auburn penciled in for two of the eight teams in Omaha. Georgia will certainly get to the CWS.

The post game hub bub is we might see him in relief all weekend.
The other option is sending him out for 4-5 innings tomorrow and then shut him down for Hoover.
All I know is he’s the best we’ve got and the drop off as of late has been steep. Need Cleaver, Bennett, etc.
Same to you

Maybe he shouldn't have given up a grand slam to MSU last weekend.

Be careful with “certainly” with anything to do with ncaa tourney

According to AU fans, we haven’t played anyone yet.

UGA moved down 2 spots and Auburn moved up one spot. Strange.
All the more reason that rpi should be thrown directly in the trash. It's utterly worthless

RPI is too heavily weighted for road wins of any type. Good mid majors like Coastal, Southern Miss, Missouri State, Jax State rack up a lot of road wins in their conference.

Never thought Bama would have a shot at possibly being a top 8 national seed after the opening weekend sweep against Kentucky, but Vaughn has done a great job with this squad.

what kills me about RPI is a team's win percentage, which is a pretty big deal, is weight the exact same amount as you're opponent's opponent's win percentage. Like how on earth could anyone justify those things counting the same?
I want ot know how this made up metric made its way to being so heavily relied on by the ranking people and postseason decision makers. Same with Jeff Sagarin and the friggin colley matrix back in the BCS era...like how does some random arse formula get picked as the gold standard?

shite you not, we dropped 2 spots in the RPI after that win
Alabama has gone 7-1 over their last 8 games, including 7-0 in SEC play.
During this time they have dropped two spots in RPI.
Alabama dropped a spot after beating Ole Miss last night. Ole Miss rose one spot.

He has. If you look at the stats Alabama should be in the back half of the SEC standings, not 3rd.. If Alabama could have just closed out one or two games in the Arkansas series (Alabama was swept even though I think they had a late lead in every game) they would be a lock for a national seed. I think if they split one of the next two with Ole Miss they will be in the conversation for a national seed, and will at least host.
