Clemson is the only undefeated team in the Top-25. And yet


Mar 7, 2022, 1:57 PM

... and yet we barely creep into the rankings.

Several teams with 3 and 4 losses are ranked higher.

D1 even has NC State *ahead* of us after they went 0-4 the past week.

Is NCSU over-rated, or is Northeastern just that good?

I guess we’ll find out soon.

We do not have the reputation of a top baseball program. If we keep winning and finish above .500 in the ACC, rankings will take care of themselves.

We don't have the reputation of a top baseball program? Minus the national championships historically the baseball program has been better than the football program.

Clemson doesn't care about basketball....as evidenced by Brown-L getting 14 years.


Minus the National Championships? Can you do that?

If Michael Jordan wouldn’t have grown those last 5 inches I’d be taller than him.

Hard to explain my point in print. I'm just saying as far as winning the baseball program had a better history.

I would agree that our ranking right now is much more due to our terrible record last season than our historical reputation.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I fully understand your point. All we have to do is to look


Mar 7, 2022, 3:09 PM [ in reply to Re: Minus the National Championships? Can you do that? ]

at our outfield fence for reference to our program’s tradition and history.

We haven't made a CWS in 12 years


Mar 7, 2022, 3:12 PM [ in reply to Re: Clemson is the only undefeated team in the Top-25. And yet ]

I think it's fair to say our baseball reputation has been tarnished over that span.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You realize NCST has been to only 2 CWS in 50 years and


Mar 7, 2022, 6:47 PM [ in reply to Re: Clemson is the only undefeated team in the Top-25. And yet ]

haven’t won the ACc since 1986.

They have virtually zero baseball history.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Northeastern is now 6 - 5 I believe...


Mar 7, 2022, 2:19 PM

and that is after winning three at Nancy State.

D1Baseball rankings on my computer show us as #19 and NC State as #22.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgmilitary_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I clicked the links in the TNet article.


Mar 7, 2022, 3:11 PM

Thought it was D1, but might have been one of the other rankings.

One had NC State ahead of us after going 0-4 last week while we swept SCAR.

Sorry, it was “Perfect Game” and not D1 ...***

It's really early in the season to complain about rankings


Mar 7, 2022, 3:16 PM

Especially considering this is baseball and conference play hasn't even begun. It will be at least another month before we have any real evidence of who is good. Right now rankings are still predominantly based on reputation and projected roster strength.

Re: Clemson is the only undefeated team in the Top-25. And yet

Rankings will take care of themselves. The first quarter of the season is based more on what you did last year than what you doing this year.

Re: Clemson is the only undefeated team in the Top-25. And yet


Mar 7, 2022, 3:49 PM

I think that NC State was 0-3 this past weekend.

It would appear that several teams are unbeaten, but they are not in the SEC so as in football- those unbeaten teams are lacking. just joking-
I do wonder how the one team from the SEc is 6-6 and still ranked? that is the coaches poll- I believe.

Virginia has not played a team in either quadrant 1 or 2 of the RPI rankings yet. That's why their RPI is so low. Once they start playing teams in quadrant 1 and 2, their RPI will improve.

You really only need to look at the RPI. That is what regionals and super regionals are based on... (and $$$ of course).

I think UVA is unbeaten and they are ranked all over the place. One site has them number 4 and one didn’t even have them ranked.
