ABSURD SCHEDULING!!!!!!!
Tennessee plays 6 true road games and 4 neutral site games in the non-conference.

I am hoping to GOD, that LSU beats you two of three and then y'all get swept @ UK and @ Arky to start off 1-8 in the SEC.
So, your real intentions are now flushed out. Got it. You should pile your wishes in one hand and shite in the other and see which one fills up fastest.

Miss State appears to be playing 19 straight home games to open the season against Portland, Grambling, Purdue, Samford, Rhode Island, St. Joes, MVSU, Central Arkansas and 1 game vs. USM. That's absurd.
But yet, we have an RPI of 34. Just because it is a small school doesn't mean they aren't good. Samford and Purdue were both good last year. Portland has a pitcher projected to go in the 1st round.
USM is also a good team this year. I don't know about St. Joes

So you were bagging on Tennessee for only playing 4 true road games thus far when Miss State only plays 1 with 3 neutral site games and Tennessee plays 6 roadies and 4 neutral site games.

That's what happens when you are a baseball powerhouse. You should try it sometime.
Why not just bet on the final RPI and overall SOS...MSU vs Tenn... if you are that concerned about our scheduling practices?

Why should we go play at shitty parks on the road when we have one of the nicest stadiums in all of all of college baseball.
Of our road games we play at South Alabama, at Memphis at Autozone park, USM in Jackson at Trustmark park.

Because you can control your non-conference scheduling. That's why.

And that's why we SCHEDULED tougher than you in the nonconference. Hence, I show you once again.

Keep bringing up the intended SOS all you want. The SOS will be determined by how those teams actually do (actually is the key word here), not what was "intended" based on 0-0 records before the season starts. Again, what poll or metric uses this intended SOS for anything? My bet offer still stands.

I wasn't "bragging" on anything. You lost 3 of 4 in a traditional baseball shite hole. Congrats, I guess?
Meanwhile, I guess we should apologize for playing(and dominating) in the Carnegie Hall of College Baseball.
Why are your jimmies so rustled again?

I said bagging on purpose, not bragging. Comprehension isn't your friend, I see.

Because Tennessee baseball sucks, and they have to play road games in February and lost them

Jesus you can't be this dense. Not possible.
Your argument was SCHEDULING which I've shown, decisively, that we SCHEDULED tougher than you. We can't help it if we scheduled good teams, dominated their arse, and they are struggling to recover. Intended SOS is all we can control. We can't control how good the teams actually ARE in a given year.

No shite. MSU's overall SOS will be superior to Tennessee's.

SO does my counteroffer. MSU will finish with a superior RPI and SOS to Tennessee. You in or what?
