If Indiana gets a Seed and Cal Poly doesn’t, something’s seriously wrong with relying on the RPI so heavily.
Cal Poly scheduled the pre season #1 Team – Cal State Fullerton, and swept them.
Cal Poly scheduled last year’s Big-12 Champs K-State and Swept them.
Cal Poly won series vs. every UC school in California, including 3/4 from Cal.
Cal Poly scheduled last year’s National Champ UCLA and beat them at their place.
Poly only lost one series this entire season! at Long Beach.
Cal Poly won the Big West for the first time ever, had the highest wins in
school history a record 45 games this season, was briefly ranked #1 in
the nation.
It is just plane wrong that Poly isn’t a seeded team.
I’m a Poly fan also. But I think Indiana has a solid case for a national seed. The SEC on the other hand getting both the 7 and 8 seeds would be an injustice. Several other more deserving teams such as Louisiana, Cal Poly, and Ok St if they win the Big 12. Cal Poly is just a victim of having a strong schedule on paper, and some of those teams not living up to expectations if they miss out on a seed. RPI is also heavily weighted by road wins and Poly had a home heavy schedule this year.
Also if you are going to claim you went to Poly, please spell correctly. It makes you look like you went to an SEC school, (Vanderbilt excluded), and not the best public school in the Western US.
Does mercer have a chance? They played terrible in asun tourney. RPI is still very high.
