our RPI is up to about 150 - and is likely to go higher. 4 weeks ago it was 300 something. I'd say that is a season given what expectations were.

let's beat Tulane before we get too giddy. Conroy runs a very disciplined offense and they showed us at their place that they will be tough to beat.

I am thinking that he meant our power rating as our rpi is up to 209. Our power rating is 150.

I haven't counted that as a W at all, nor am I giddy. They've just already exceeded my yearly expectations w/half the conference schedule to go. That doesn't change if we lose tomorrow, although I'll be pissed lol

I notice that Rivals RPI rankings have us at 186......that's a lot better than where we started! And we can still go higher. Every game now is HUGE, starting with Tulsa, which will be a huge test of our boys.

I feel the exact same way. Expectations are a terrible thing; it's like playing with fire.

On the flip side, screw it. I've been a fan for 5 years now, and this is the first time that I am genuinely excited for this team because we have a chance to win every game.


Missed this the first time around when it was posted, but I'm right there with you Harry. Just wish it would have happened in 09' or the 5 years previous I was in school.
