We’ve just finished up week two of BIG EAST Beisbol play and uh, well, ok it certainly has been something. Let’s take each team’s record, non-conference only, and put them in order, best record to worst record with their respective RPI’s, then you tell me who you think would be on top:
St. John’s - 22-3 (34)
Butler - 20-8 (122)
Georgetown - 20-12 (196)
Xavier - 17-13 (119)
Seton Hall - 14-12 (97)
Creighton - 9-15 (226)
Villanova - 4-17 (269)
RPI helps out with this thought experiment as it adds a bit of context to each team’s record, with Georgetown accumulating wins against poor teams, sending their RPI plummeting, while Seton Hall has played stiffer competition and lost to ‘good’ opponents.
