Baseball experts, how does this look for post season positioning? Or are we too far behind to catch up to make a regional?

Not sure what our RPI will be. But it was bad starting the weekend. Record is poor too. It’s an uphill climb. I think we’d need to finish 9-3 in the rest of our SEC games to get a bid.

Have exceeded expectations

that is post coaching change, and poor run production,

8-10 league

with A&M, Bama, Ky, and Fla. left. ...Good one to end with.

Tough climb.

RPI went from 70 to 51 after the first two wins ... we will know more here soon

Our RPI has remained pretty good throughout the season based on the sheer number of road games

Not sure what our RPI will be. But it was bad starting the weekend. Record is poor too. It’s an uphill climb. I think we’d need to finish 9-3 in the rest of our SEC games to get a bid.

I'm certainly not an expert, but we did jump from 67 to 46 in RPI in the span of 3 games. With the quality of the teams remaining on our schedule I would think a continued hot streak puts them in the NCAA discussion. It's gotta be very hot streak though.

I'm just proud of the fight this bunch is showing. Could've easily packed it in with the Can mess and tough start.

9-3? No. We’re in easily if we finish 7-5 and split the last two midweek games. And we’re probably on the right side of the bubble if we finish 6-6 too. Look at the remaining schedule. A 14-16 SEC record against the league schedule we played gives us a good shot. The RPI would take care of itself.

That said, it’ll be tough and still an uphill climb.

Got to finish .500 overall. That looked unlikely entering last night, but if we can avoid getting swept 6-8 over our last 14 is doable. Not a given, by any means, but doable.

ETA: Just checked the Boydsworld needs report, which entering the weekend had us needing 8 more wins to crack the top 45. So today obviously helped very bigly.

Agreed there seems to be some interest now. Cant help but play the "what if" game though. Like what if we flip about 5 of the games we should have won anyways? 27-14 and 10-8 would look real good right now.

To the discussion of our post season chances, drawing Florida at home the last weekend of the season could be huge. If the current trajectory continues, they will have easily wrapped up the SEC title before the start of that series. We need LSU and South Carolina to stay under us in RPI. Florida, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Vandy and UGA are solid locks for the tournament barring catastrophe. Everybody else should be battling for another 3 bids, maybe 4. Lately the committee hasn't smiled on teams under .500 in conference.

eta: Our 5 losses in Q4 are just disgusting.

Blowing the game last weekend @ Auburn could be big, another road win over a decent Barner team could have helped a bunch in the long run
