The Rhody board posters are under the misapprehension that we have a D2 win. That likely refers to Utah Tech who completed their transition before last year. Utah Tech has a higher rating than three of the teams in their conference.

I'm not a coach but I believe its based on film. I'm sure information is shared among friends. But not in person scouting.

Who is going to be the Rhode Island comeback calamari this year? Remember that guy?

As I recall, last year Tim planned for both scenarios until we knew who we were playing. I suspect he’s doing the same this year. I’ll be tuning in next Saturday, 9 AM.

I like how they also count “No amazing wins” against UCD despite the fact that per Massey:

a) our three best wins are all better than their best win
b) our worst loss is also better than their best win

Don’t get me wrong, I think we’re pretty comparable and it should be a tough game, but I don’t think it’s insanity that we were seeded above them

Since we can't rule out an upset, here's the Central Connecticut State University football message board:

the Aggies have a suspect defense — movielover

Huh? lol

They also don't seem to understand the concept of SOS. Davis #9 vs. RI #79.

Their board keeps saying their "bad loss" to Brown kept them seeded behind Davis. Davis had a "bad loss" as well to Idaho State, which likely kept us out of Lehigh's #5 seed.

Quoting Stan Becton's article on Facebook.

Hack City also bypassed SOS.

I was quoting him as well. I know you didn't say that!

I'll give Hack City credit for doing such a good job of whining without really whining on their Bracket reaction show. Those are two Rhodys with deep ties to the URI team and family, so for them to not go ballistic at URI finishing No. 9 in the seeding was amazing.

Everybody outside of the Big Sky and maybe the UAC don't know or think Davis' resume is worthy of the No. 8 seed. Who cares. Let them play their Round 1 game - we'll prepare either way and strap it up in two weeks. Play it all out on the field.

HOW DO YOU GET FANS TO THE GAME!!!??? It helps to not be playing Thanksgiving weekend, that's for sure - but given the turnout last year vs. Illinois State, something has to be done.

Marketing not falling asleep. Six Associate ADs and they basically ignored a home playoff game for our no. 1 sport.

Game strategy - recent game, Pinnick stayed home (few runs).

My complaint is that when you select tickets it doesn't show up. You have to specifically look on the football page like last year.
