Cool. How good is Northwestern, usually?"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

So BYU is now at 56, with a 5-2 record. Already looks much better than last year. We'll see how both pitching and hitting hold up, but the team seems to have a better attitude than last year."Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

Lamar, not highly considered, still forced the Cougs into the 10th."Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

Enough games have been played now in college baseball for the rpi to be of some value. So far it's making the WCC look pretty good. The 18-5 W-L record looks great but most of BYU's wins so far are against lower ranked teams. However, with the WCC pretty strong, BYU has enough left in the schedule to push them into NCAA at-large range if they keep winning at this clip. The Oregon win last night is looking very good.
RPI of WCC teams:
21. Pepperdine
31. Gonzaga
50. San Diego
70. LMU
72. San Francisco
73. BYU
79. Portland
102. St. Mary's
104. Pacific
287. Santa Clara
BYU's non-conference wins so far in order of ranking:
11. Oregon
84. Milwaukee
111. Texas A&M-CC
167. Northwestern
179. Ohio State
186. Lamar
218. Oral Roberts
248. Utah Valley
Non-conference opponents remaining:
92. Utah (away and home)
29. @Washington
49. @Cal
82. @San Diego State

The hitting hasn't been stellar, but not terrible, just adequate. The pitching as a whole has been outstanding (3.15 team ERA, .223 opponent BA) -- so far the best at BYU in at least ten years and probably for much longer than that. It will make things interesting in the WCC, which because the rpis in the league are good, means there is a shot at an at-large in the NCAA tournament if they can win most of their conference games.Last edited by BlueK; 03-29-2019, 11:20 AM.
