No quality wins in that field. But you gotta play in something like this to hit 31 games

Agreed. LSU and Akron have the best records of that group, followed by RI and WKU. The rest all have losing records, and only LSU and KSU have wins against ranked opponents.

Hope the Cayman Islands dropped their lockdown. They are near 100% lockdown for outsiders.
