I'd take it since they only have 3 AAC bids. ( ECU, UH and Tulane)
But facing Texas A&M would be tough.

If Tulane goes to Tex A&M, then the first great problem would be the MIGHTY ANTEATERS (U.C.I.). That team gives someone fits every year that they get selected (Cal. St./Fullerton, too).

At this point, I do not care where Tulane would go ... as long as they go. If they wind up in Red Stick, then so be it. It has been a LONG TIME since Tulanians have had any baseball postseason hope.

DRIVE for 35 -- ROLL GREEN WAVE!!!!

I hope our coaching staff and players are on top of this unlike the miserable performance against a Southern Miss team by our pathetic mid week pitchers and as usual no hitting team.
The only thing pathetic is you and your same old mantra.

Baseball America will have their projections out tomorrow or Friday. Expect Tulane to remain on the outs of their field.

Rice to Baton Rouge & Tulane to College Station is based on the selector's seeding. Rice a second seed & Tulane a third seed.

I'd go to BR or College Station to see a regional but I'm going to pass on going to Iowa.

I agree with you. I am not going further than Red Stick or College Station, but Tulane needs the invitation first. Roll Wave. defeat Memphis?

Does our RPI need to move from the 50s before the Memphis win To the 40's after the Memphis series win to get there?

The answer is no. We still need to do well in the tourney. Also, no need to start a new thread for every question.

Do not tell me what to do. You are dealing with the wrong person. Thanks for your advice. How many wins in the tournament do we need to get a bid? Will Warren Nolan drop our rpi' to the 40's after our Memphis series win?

After the Memphis win series Tulane need to be in the 40s RPI to get invited to the NCAA tournament. Am I correct or wrong?

Jonathan, I am having a difficult time following you. Previously you have stated Tulane needed to sweep its last two series to get to the NCAA tournament.

We did neither. By your own logics (and you spoke in no uncertain terms) we cannot make the tournament.

Probably but let's win at least a couple and make it a no brainier.

Virtually every college baseball site thinks we are in. Now, if we have an 0-2 disaster in Clearwater, that might change their minds. But Aaron Fitt and Kendall Rogers think we are in. And those are two great college baseball prognosticators.

We have a Top 40 RPI, and we won four of our last five weekend series. So, if we don't stink in Clearwater, I am inclined to believe we are in.
