College sports with the P-5 monopoly/influence are corrupt and anti-American.

Well you got to look at who they've played and beaten. What their non conference schedules look like.

I think our Tigers are ranked #1 in AAC. We own the series vs UCONN, USF, HOU, & ECU. We lost the series vs Cincy. We play UCF series soon. Would love to see our "boys of Summer" bring home some hardware.

*anyone know why we play two 3-game series with Cincy?

Schedule strength hurts us. We play too may games that are negative calculations even if you win. still we are ranked 41 in the Warren Nolan live RPI poll and 46 in the NCAA poll.

RE: WOW
Per Nolan Warren, AAC RPIs are currently:
24 USF
26 Houston
38 UConn
41 Memphis
42 Tulane
43 ECU
55 UCF
196 Cincy

Having to play 2 conference series (6 games) against Cincy will likely take it's toll. If we can take 5 or 6 from remaining Cincy & UCF series and take 2 of 3 from Tulane, we should be in good shape. That may be asking a lot, though.

Remaining non-conf games:
132 Ark St
291 Miss Valley St
280 UT-Martin

Earlier RPI killing non-conf opponents:
262 Eastern Illinois (3 games, won all)
288 Alcorn St (4 games, won all)

One thing that bodes well for us is that we are 10-6 against Top 50 and we have WON our conference series against :
24 USF
26 Houston
38 UConn
43 ECU

So, while we may have some wins against very-high RPI teams, we have fared VERY WELL against good competition.

If you dropped out the 7 games against E.Ill and Alcorn (pretend we just didn't play them), I wonder what our RPI would be? 25? 20? 15?
