Seattle is up 3-2 on Oregon. Saint Louis is RPI #114, and Seattle is RPI #244.
I know we are a long way from these having an impact on us, but it can't hurt for teams ahead of us or around us to take RPI hits. Whether it be for National Seed contention, or just a better match up in post season play.
Oregon game is potentially a huge dagger to their national seed chances... 3 outs to get...
2 more outs to get...
Damn there's a single...
Saint Louis is now up 4-3 in the 8th. Ole Miss has 3, 4, 5 in the bottom of the inning coming up during their next at bat though.
Seattle with the double play to end the game!
Final. That's a huge dagger right there! Too bad it wasn't in Eugene...
Speaking of daggers, Saint Louis gets two more runs in their half of the 8th and now lead 6-3.
But yes, very helpful loss for us from the Seattle/Oregon game.
I'm sure Kendall Rodgers will move the rebels up in his poll after this loss and after Auburn takes two this weekend.
6 outs to get...
Not nearly as happy about OM's midweek struggles... Their failures also hurt us to an extent from an SOS standpoint...
Ole Miss rallies, gets two back, but Saint Louis throws out the potential tying run out at the plate. Now 6-5 Saint Louis going into the 9th.
And then he will take it out of our SOS.Quote:

Saint Louis gets a run back.
It's not weird- it's politics. Ole Miss has more connections with Perfect Game than we do at this moment, and they get preferential treatment at times because of it.Quote:

And Ole Miss just tied it up at 7 in the 9th.
Were we in on Stuart turner? That guy is a stud. I'd love to have him protecting hunter
Brett Basham (former Ole Miss catcher) was a volunteer assistant coach at LSU-Eunice (juco). No one was after Turner and he called Ole Miss and told them about him.
It's going to extras in Oxford, but I can't imagine Saint Louis has the pitching depth to pull this out on the road based on what I saw the last two innings.
LSU is the one who should be really kicking themselves.Quote:
