    Your first 8 are all inside the top 75 of rpi, so they haven't had weak schedules before this weekend

    We are only 25% in the season. We play the hardest SEC schedule in the conference. RPI is a non-factor. 14 SEC wins and we are in.

    It's mind blowing we have fans that are defending this crap schedule. RPI aside, challenge your team. Entertain your fans. Have some respect for the program.

    Scheduling is about getting to the Tourney

    Fans have been entertained and get to watch the country's best conference for 5 home weekends.

    At the end of the season, if Lemonis misses the tourney because of RPI then it is his own fault. Getting into a Regional is the floor and just making a Regional probably doesn?t save his job.

    We honestly need to be competitive in the SEC. No more getting run ruled on the regular. Last year was embarrassing.

    The problem is that you think just getting to the tourney is acceptable for our program.

    Kentucky has played Washington St
    and Kansas
    Auburn has played Virginia
    SC has played Clemson
    Georgia has played Michigan State and GT
    I can keep going but my point remains
    Is Austin Peay are hardest opponent?

    It is acceptable for basketball , so I guess just making the tourney is good enough for Baseball too.

    And it wasn't the Mt. Saint Mary's that we played. It was Saint Mary's out of the West Coast Conference, which has some decent teams. Mt. Saint's Marys (now 1-10) that we beat up on was busy getting beat by that juggernaut Lehigh.
