Your first 8 are all inside the top 75 of rpi, so they haven't had weak schedules before this weekend
RPI is useless in March- you know thatQuote:

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.Quote:

Fla/St Marys 9-9 in the 9th
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.Quote:

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.Quote:

I can keep going but my point remains
Is Austin Peay are hardest opponent?
Nobody can get elitedoggers rowled up like 34
Haha. Florida walked it offQuote:

Long term no it's not. This year? You ****ing damn right it is after the last 2 years.Quote:

If we win enough SEC games we will be fine. If we don't win enough SEC games RPI doesn't matter anyway.Quote:

Typically I am not a fan of bad non conference schedules, but we needed it this year to work out the kinks. The SEC schedule will determine whether we make a regional or not
Our schedule has been meh.
But that's fine. We needed it.
League play will be the deciding factor.
Sure. But it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Playing an "interesting" or "competitive" schedule- pre season tournaments, brand name teams like Arizona State, etc. is as much for the fans as it is anything else really.Quote:

APeay blows out Auburn today 15-6. Peay should be 2-0 vs them right now. Big game tomorrow
St Mary's beats Fla. Should be 2-0 also but blew it like Peay
Kentucky getting butchered by Kennesaw St 2 days in a row
Mizzou loses again and drops series to Purdue-Fort Wayne.
David Lipscombe scored 13 on Bama today
What's more relevant is our won/loss record is basically in line with most SEC teams. Most teams have 3 losses and we're sitting at 4. Alabama and Georgia have 1 but I'm not sure they're legit yet. Arkansas has 2 and LSU and Tennessee have 1 and A&M have 0 and I believe those teams are legit.Quote:
