...hopefully this isn't a jinx. currently, A&M is 1st in the big 12 and swept the last 3 big 12 opponents (although not so tough of opponents). next up is a tough game with rice and then baylor...hope we can keep it rolling.

Sunday's RPI Update (April 27)
Kendall Rogers
Rivals.com College Baseball Editor

Here are a few notes from today's RPI Update:

* After sweeping Baylor in a doubleheader Saturday afternoon, Nebraska climbed to No. 6 in the latest RPI... Oklahoma State, meanwhile, is now sitting at No. 5. So where does that put Texas A&M? After crushing Missouri Saturday afternoon, the Aggies made another climb up the rankings and are at No. 17 this morning. A&M's SOS continues to hurt them in the RPI, but if they win today and split the last two series, they're still a national seed.

* South Carolina is still at 10 even after Saturday's loss to LSU, while Georgia is at 11 following Saturday's loss to Florida.

* In other SEC news, Arkansas was a big winner after sweeping Ole Miss in a doubleheader. The Razorbacks are now at 26 in this morning's RPI, while Kentucky is at 30 following a road win over Vanderbilt. UK could really get a boost with another win over Vandy, while Arkansas heads home with three-straight series wins.

* Texas and Missouri continue to drop in the RPI...... UT is now 38 in the latest RPI while Missouri is 39......Missouri is in much better shape right now, while Texas could fall on the bad side of the bubble with another loss to Kansas State later today.

* LSU entered the weekend on the bad side of the bubble, but are now 44 in the RPI after taking the first two games from South Carolina. What seemed like a team out of the postseason before the weekend appears to be a team now back in the mix. Great news for LSU fans.

* Dallas Baptist entered the weekend with an RPI in the 20s or early 30s, but after dropping the series finale to Northern Colorado, its RPI fell to 40 this morning.

* Ole Miss was a big loser on Saturday as well.... the Rebels fell to 50 in the latest RPI after dropping a pair of games to Arkansas.... as crazy as it sounds, the Rebels could miss the postseason if they don't finish the season on a high note. Good league record or not, the NCAA isn't a huge fan of teams with 60 RPIs making it into the field.

[MajorMike]

The Aggies have won 15 Big 12 games in a row with 5 straight sweeps, since their two losses to Oklahoma State on March 22 and 23.

[johngateswhiteley]

whats up tool? still peddling your rpi nonsense...sad. A&M is #1 in the big 12, owns the record for consecutive big 12 wins, and is the highest ranked (big 12) team in the polls.

...you're pathetic.

[MajorMike]

and is the highest ranked (big 12) team in the polls.

...you're pathetic.

Oooops.

BUT, knowing your dumb ass you'll continue to post on and on about your amazing baseball team. So, feel free. Let the hot air commence.

[Ballcox]

^this is coming from the guy who likes to jump in with shit talk anytime a UT thread comes up, amazing.

So yeah, I do feel obligated to jump in on a worthless agg thread about winning a bunch of Big XII games, can you blame me? As for agg baseball, post something new when they actually win something meaningful.

That could be a LONG while, but I'm sure you'll stay on top of it.:lol

3 of the 4 main polls, bra...that means A&M is the highest ranked big 12 team in the polls. maybe thats hard for you to understand...maybe not?

anyway, i don't give a shit about one man's opinion...thats not a real poll.

I don't know why it is so hard for you to admit you are wrong. atm is higher in 3 polls; they are not in 2 others. Therefore Saying they are higher "the highest ranked (big 12) team in the polls." is simply false.

I would expect you not to give a shit about someone's opinion that isn't the same as yours; its your entire persona.

I would also expect you not to care about the expert's opinion seeing as you know zip about college baseball.

...wow, you are the biggest bitch on the internet. rivals rankings are not a poll, its one mans opinion and by definition not a poll. the top 4 polls, and these are actually polls, are USA Today/ESPN, Baseball America, NCBWA, and CBN. this is common knowledge amongst college baseball fans...don't know what to tell you. though, i love how you assumed i just started watching Aggie Baseball...Mark Johnson had a few #1 teams back in the day. fuck off.

As far as your status as a baseball fan, I'd be willing to stake my left nut that I've seen more OSU games at Olsen Field than you've seen atm games there.

there isn't a battle dumb shit. A&M was the highest ranked big 12 team in the polls...still are. btw, whats A&M's rpi now?

how is San Diego ranked high, yet their RPI doesn't match? lol, the rpi can be nonsense.

16 innings! ...unreal. surprised nobody mentioned it yet. A&M still rolling along...now 16 wins.

you gotta be kidding me..

they nut up and win in 16 friday nite but you're all pissed off they gave this first game back today?

they win the nightcap and win the series...and most probably the conference championship.

chill dude

maybe you were onto something jgw...:lol

if you thought they blew the first game....what do you think about the choke job in the second game...

but look on the bright side...you could pull a capt. mike and brag about your girls softball team and it's #5 seeding in the tournament.

Umm... it's a #6 seed, which is better than 50% of the Big 12... which means A&M Softball is in the top-tier in the conference.

Uhhhh... 500 wrestling titles.

I was confusing them with ASU softball, which got a 6-seed and felt snubbed.

...you can never afford to lose games like that, who knows what the future has in store. apparently, 6+ errors in the sunday late game.

losing by giving up 5 runs in the bottom of the 9th by 2 errors is never acceptable. it appears A&M paid for their 16 straight wins by handing nebraska 2 games they should have won comfortably. pathetic.

[degenerate_gambler]

ouch! :lol

Yea, you are right as far as rivals being a trash poll; they have atm listed higher than any other national poll.
