Florida can actually sweep teams and field the ball this year so there’s that

Bethune-Cookman is actually a really solid mid major team this year. They take a different approach to recruiting and bring in guys from DR, Puerto Rico, Venezuela and Aruba

Damn that might be as impressive a SWAC team I’ve seen in a while. They’re having a relatively good year for a team out that conference

They are, but they’re still going to be an RPI anchor

That team is good. NSU is not.

I dont know much about Bethune-Cookman, but when I was head softball coach and then assistant principal at A&M Consolidated HS, Texas A&M would have the coaches of teams in their softball regional set up times to work out at my field. Back then the NCAA only allowed participating teams 1 hour on the game field.

I hosted a lot of great schools on my field and was laughing when Arizona practiced on my field and Mike Candrea told me I looked funny in a coat and tie as a principal. I also hosted LSU twice and our fight song was playing when the team showed up, plus I got to watch us practice from my dugout.

Bethune-Cookman used my field and locker rooms 2 days in a row and when they got off the first day, their players were asking me if this was really our HS field. They said it was so much nicer than their field, so my booster club had barbecue brisket for them the next day so they would enjoy Texas.

That makes me wonder what their baseball facilities are like, and if they arent good, then I respect the work those coaches are doing to be successful

They’re a very good team. But we have fallen below just losing to them. Ole Miss curb stomped us.

Because no one could fathom they might be a decent team because they play in a black league. Instead of just using their eye balls

That’s your reasoning? Get a grip dude.

How about because they are a mid-major, have crap facilities, clearly have an exceptional staff and beat us like a rented mule.

But yea, let’s stick to race instead. Our fans are retarded sometimes.

Whew! Thankfully, Bethune Cookman also beat them. I was worried if they didn't, it might've count as a loss for us. But since they beat Florida, it cancels out our loss to them.

Florida is 9-6 in the SEC with an RPI of 5
We are 6-9 in the SEC with an RPI of 67

Yeah, I'd much rather be in Florida's shoes right now.
