TheGrandLife Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Did they get new coaches? I just went through their roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlarry Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Billy Beane and the 02 A's 20 wins in a row are in site. It would be cool to catch them since they spend about the same amount on facilities.

billikenfan05 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Here's this weekends slate against VCU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Kenneth Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Apparently VCU is on a 12 game winning streak of their own....so the games this weekend should be a battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 VCU is at 13. They beat UVA 11-3 last night. They had 3,621 in attendance in Richmond. The teams with the two current longest winning streaks in the nation will battle it out this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billikenfan05 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Big week for the boys. Two home day games against Minnesota Tuesday and Wednesday at 3pm and 1:30pm respectively. UMass comes to town this weekend 6pm, 2pm and 12pm start times. Fun note on Minnesota: they play their early season home games at the Viking's US Bank Stadium.

billikenfan05 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 They just announced cancellation of the Minnesota series. I'm assuming due to weather. This is a big time blow to the strength of schedule if they can't figure out how to reschedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, strength of schedule is only good for the fact that the team gets better by playing better competition. A-10 is a one bid league in baseball. SLU would have to basically win out to have a chance at getting an at-large bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t they theoretically run through a gauntlet schedule and put themselves in position for an at large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basebill123 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The latter. A-10 brings the SOS down drastically. A-10 has 8 teams over 150 RPI, including 6 in the 200s. The best is Fordham at 84, worst is LaSalle at 274. Slu is currently 93. The coaches do a great job of getting quality opponents on the schedule but almost every non-conference game would probably have to be top 50 opponent to offset that much. kwyjibo and DirtyRican like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyRican Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 It really is a shame the A10 is so weak in baseball. The Bills do a great job of trying to schedule better teams but there are only a few weekends available to do so. The C-USA was tough when I played, we didn't have facilities the team does now so it made it really hard to compete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgeldmacher Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 This is another reason why a switch to the AAC might be good for SLU if hope for the Big East appears lost or too distant into the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
