What an incredible message

@NCAABaseball @KUBaseball @GoNUbaseball @MoStateBSB @RazorbackBSB 3 top 25 teams in one regional from your beloved RPI. Makes sense. Straight up lazy.

@davideckert98 Lol but of course!

The 16 regionals ranked by the average RPI of the teams included: 1. Lawrence 37.8 2. Hattiesburg 38 3. College Station 39 4. Chapel Hill 39.3 5. Morgantown 48 6. Gainesville 48.8 7. Tallahassee 53.8 8. Starkville 55.8 9. LA 64 10. Eugene 65 11. Athens 67.8 12. Atlanta 73.5 13. Tuscaloosa 74 14. Austin 75 15. Lincoln 77.3 16. Auburn 82

NCAA chair @SeminoleAlford on why Mississippi State hosted over Arkansas: “They (Miss St) had a very strong conference schedule” Miss State: 12th SOS 4-6 in SEC series (1-1 SEC Tourney) Arkansas: 8th SOS 7-3 in SEC series (3-1 SEC Tourney)

Brutal that @RazorbackBSB isn’t hosting a Regional. Letting March struggles override May results is tough look for committee.

@Todd4State @jacob__brandon And we beat Georgia, swept Alabama in Tuscaloosa, won series against Ole Miss and State. There's no comparison in our good wins. And what is the "good reason" the committee doesn't look at series wins.

@jacob__brandon The committee looks at individual games and not series. For good reason. MSU has wins over Ole Miss, Auburn, Arkansas, Texas, and Texas A&M as well as over USM and Arizona State

Mississippi State has a higher RPI and DSR. Arkansas had 2 losses to Stetson, a loss to UTA, Arkansas State, Mizzou and South Carolina. MSU also had 17 wins over SEC teams including the Governor's Cup like with a more difficult SEC schedule than Arkansas.

@Todd4State State had a more difficult schedule with way less quad 1 wins, with more opportunities to get those quad 1 wins with that difficult schedule. Y'all's only good series win was Ole Miss, who we also won a series against

@glperry @OtisCam03403212 No but we're the only team with the quad 1 wins, 7/10 SEC series on our resume. RPI is flawed. It's easy to say it's not as a State fan because that's the main thing y'all have going for y'all. A lot of non-hog folks agree, so not "our" narrative

@OtisCam03403212 Bet you think you’re only team outside top 20 rpi that you think should’ve hosted though right? So it’s only flawed because it fits your narrative

Catastrophic? No team has ever not hosted with top 15 RPI and top 10 SOS. So how is it catastrophe that MSU hosts with those metrics?

@sadcowboyzfans @hystericalhog @LFLatMSU @HoggyWonder @CBCJakeMck Okay, so what good series wins does State have? Did State beat Arkansas head to head? Since those matter

@2Hog2 @hystericalhog @LFLatMSU @HoggyWonder @CBCJakeMck Yes they should matter and they do matter. Just like losing to Stetson, Missouri State, Missouri, Arkansas State, UT Arlington, etc matters.

Arkansas having more Q1 wins that West Virginia had Q1 + Q2 is insane

@esws63 @JaredSandler For real. It takes less time for them to give the "appreciate it" hand than it does for us to let them in lol

@JaredSandler When you let somebody in and they don’t wave at you to thank you I know it’s silly, but it bothers.

QOTD What is your biggest driving pet peeve?

@lounge_dawg @Joeycranston The conference tournament in Hoover? So you did think it mattered

@Joeycranston We lost 3 series in a row, hogs had won multiple series to end the year. I figured a slight bump from Hoover would have done it.

Still laughing at the fact people still thought a conference tournament mattered lol

@sadcowboyzfans @hystericalhog @LFLatMSU @HoggyWonder @CBCJakeMck What about good wins, as in series wins? Should those matter? What about head to head? Should that matter? How about second most quad 1 wins in the country? Should those matter?

@hystericalhog @LFLatMSU @HoggyWonder @CBCJakeMck Bad losses have always mattered so can we stop with the pretending that it just started?

@AslanInTheNorth @Raw_Combat_ You respect that? Wow

@Raw_Combat_ Not much at all. He got attacked, ended the threat and stopped like he should. Respect.

A bit much for only touching your hat

@Familymeddawg But the tourney doesn't matter, right? Apparently losing pretty much every meaningful game in your season doesn't hurt you either as long as tough teams are on your schedule

If you want to host with a 21 RPI, you probably shouldn’t get run ruled.

@TrumpsHurricane It's sad that so many black people are raised to think like this woman

This Black woman says “White people always try to be like us” What’s your response to her ??

@omadawgs @TheDudeEffect That's not what I'm seeing most Arkansas fans saying. Is that what you're seeing?

@TheDudeEffect We made it to the finals! We should host!

The amount of casuals that are just now realizing the SEC tournament is meaningless is certainly something

@LonWongson @andrewilliamsus Run the math again, sir 😭😭

@andrewilliamsus I’m running the math on this…she was 11 when she gave birth?

Generations of Whores The worst thing a Black woman can raise is another version of herself.

@chadtracy22 @TreyMcBride @jontweetssports You're wrong man. You're wrong. State fans are wrong too. Arkansas did more than enough to host.

@TreyMcBride @jontweetssports It’s the difference in not hosting. Period. One week ago, Arkansas was absolutely a 2 seed. Three wins and people started overreacting. Big picture & they came up just short

Nothing will kill the conference tourney faster than a team like Arkansas beating an NCAA Tourney team + two Top 5 seeds while losing a key player to injury & getting nothing for it. The same reason CFB conference championships are going away. Writing's on the wall.

@DefiantLs Literally uses "Yt" to refer to white people lol. People like her are blind to their own ignorance and hypocrisy

She says she has a question for white people...

@RobsRankings But Mississippi State has such a strong SOS and high RPI! Surely you missed them in this list!

Teams with winning QI records; UCLA Georgia Tech North Carolina Texas Georgia Nebraska Florida Southern Miss Oregon West Virginia Kansas Arkansas Cincinnati Jacksonville St Tennessee
