On the positive note for McNeese, Houston Baptist knocked off Sam Houston again to win the series.
HBU now 2.5 games back from McNeese, SLU moves ahead of SHSU and 3 games back.
McNeese winning 2 next weekend would clinch the title no matter what happens elsewhere.

SLU takes two from UCA today, and sit in second by half a game. Current RPI per Warren Nolan is now 30. Shaping up to be a huge game with Southern Miss on Wednesday.

Unless my math is wrong I believe the Demosn were officially eliminated today. Dropped on to ACU.
Still have a chance to win the series today.
Have LSU midweek next week and finish the season with UNO so hopefully we can create some positive momentum against 2 solid clubs to end the season.
Rough year but I like Barbier as coach and we had some freshman look really good this year. Like what the Demons have coming back.

UL loses game 2 to Texas State. Looks like it's win the conference tournament or go home for the Cajuns.

Time to move LaTech to 2 or 3 - appears they are getting their pitching straightened out in time for regionals.

Cajuns take game 3 and the series. 4-1 week is good. Would've loved a sweep though. Time to go up to Monroe and extend that winning streak.
Posted on 5/14/17 at 4:14 pm to hendersonshands
Great post....was just about to say the same thing.
Anytime you beat two in-state teams and take a weekend series is a very good week indeed. Would've loved to win all 5, but that wasn't to be.
Now on to sweep ulm.

I think I'm heading up to Monroe for the Friday and Saturday game. Anybody else going?

Brief outlook for the rest of the season:
(if anyone finds a mistake, let me know)
1. LSU (currently 1st SEC West, 3rd overall)
Tigers need 2 wins to win the SEC West. Tigers are 1 game back of Florida for the SEC title and tied with Kentucky (both have tie-breaker over Tigers). Tigers essentially needs to win 2/3 against the fighting cowbells and having UF and UK lose 2/3 to win the SEC Title.
Tigers should be a lock to host a regional and are in the discussion for a national seed.
2. McNeese (currently 1st in SLC)
Cowboys are up 2 in the race for the title of Houston Baptist. Cowboys win 2 games and they win the title outright (or a win with a HBU loss. McNeese can finish as either conference champions or as low as 4th (would take a total meltdown and lots of things to happen).
Cowboys in decent shape for a at-large regional bid. As with any SLC team they need to win the tourney.
3. ULL (currently 2nd in Sun Belt West, 5th overall)
Cajuns can win the West title with a sweep against ULM combined with UTA getting swept. Cajuns can finish anywhere from 3rd to 6th overall.
I'll put the Cajuns on the bubble but I think they won't make it without winning the Sun Belt tourney. Hope I'm wrong.
4. Louisiana Tech (currently 4th in CUSA standings)
Bulldogs can finish as high as 2nd. Tech stands 2 games behind ODU and 1 behind FAU. On the negative the Dogs can finish as low as 7th if they get swept.
Dogs on the bubble for a regional
5. Southeastern (Currently 3rd in SLC, 1.5 games out of first.)
Lions have an outside shot at the title if HBU loses 2 games and McNeese gets swept at Lamar.
Lions probably need to win the conference tourney for a regional bid. On the bubble
6. Tulane (currently 5th in CUSA)
The Wave are 2 games out of first and would need lots of help combined with a sweep to pull off that miracle. Tulane will have to win the AAC tournament to advance to regional.
7. Nicholls (currently 7th in SLC)
Colonels are 1 game ahead of UNO for the last spot in the tourney and tied with SFA. Colonels need 2 wins or a win combined with a UNO loss to clinch a tourney bid.
Colonels must win the SLC tourney for a regional bid
8. UNO (currently: 9th in the SLC)
Privateers are 1 game behind Nicholls and SFA for the last spot in the tourney. SFA and UNO have not played each other so not sure of the tie-breaker. However, if UNO wins 2 and SFA loses 2 they'll go to the post-season.
UNO needs to win the conference tourney for a regional bid.
9. Northwestern State (currently 11th in SLC)
Demons are eliminated from a post-season birth. Demons can finish as high as 9th or as low as 12th depending on the results this weekend.
10. UL- Monroe (currently: last place in the Sun Belt)
Season ends for ULM after this week. Not much positive for the Warhawks. Hawks can definitely deliver a huge blow to any post-season chance the Cajuns may have if they pull the upset this weekend.

Thanks for putting in the work with the updates you've done throughout the season, but I disagree about SLU.
First, they are 1.5 games back of McNeese, and have the tie-breaker, so if MSU goes 1/3 against Lamar, and HBU gets swept by SFA then SLU wins conference. Unlikely, but possible.
Second, if they win 2/3 over Seton Hall and don't go 2 and out in the tournament they should have an at-large bid. SLU is sitting at 27 right now in the RPI, with a game against USM who is at 16 and 3 against Seton Hall who is at 75, go 3/4 and our RPI should stay in the 25-35 range. The SLC is up to #11 in conference RPI, way higher than the ~#18 it was last year. SLU also has a 15-10 record versus the RPI top 100, is 12-3 in their last 15 games, and has the #55 SOS (#26 OOC SOS). They have a very good argument for an at-large, and a lot better resume than last year.

I think SLU has done enough to earn an at-large. I'm just too used to seeing good SLC teams left at home to ever give a non-SLC champion the benefit of the doubt.
Definitely a big chance for SLU to impress this week against S.Miss.
I have also added the SWAC tournament and will do the same for everyone else next week.

Tech can't finish 8th. The current teams tied for 8th both have 15 losses. Tech has 11 losses.
Otherwise, you're doing a great job. Appreciate all the updates on LA teams.
