And LSU

Wrong.
It's the equivalent of Alabama beating LSU's arse in baseball MORE times than LSU has beaten Alabama......it's just that simple!



And LSU beating Alabama’s arse in baseball matters a whole lot more when LSU has 8 national championships and Alabama has 0. Nobody remembers an all-time regular season record when one program is one of the greatest in college baseball history and the other has never won it all.

Alabama fans bragging about regular season wins in baseball is basically admitting the trophy case argument is over before it even starts. LSU measures success in Omaha and national titles, not random games from the 1960s.

Congrats on winning some regular season games over the years, but LSU has more baseball national championship rings than Alabama has appearances in the championship series. That’s the difference between being relevant historically and being elite historically.

I could be wrong but this is the standings on the SEC website. As of today

Not really. If Alabama had even one baseball national title, maybe the all-time record argument would hit harder. But bragging about regular season wins while sitting on 0 championships compared to LSU’s 8 is wild.
quote:

How about this for starters:
"Alabama leads the all-time baseball series against LSU with a record of 185–174–3 as of April 19, 2025"



“All-time series lead” is cute and all, but LSU has 8 national titles and 20 College World Series appearances. Alabama has 0 national titles and 5 CWS appearances. Last one being over 25+ years ago.

That’s the baseball equivalent of hanging a “we won more regular season games” banner.

Sorry, I really don't care if college kids smoke pot or get ticketed for speeding. Since he wasn't charged with DUI, he wasn't under the influence when he got his ticket, just in possession.

Speeding tickets are the primary thing people focus on with UGA. The second thing is "driving with a suspended license" which means unpaid parking tickets. I just don't care. I don't see why fans of other teams think it's a "gotcha".

But go ahead and get bent out of shape about it. All it means is that UGA's local police and sheriff precincts don't cover these up like most colleges do.

Your players are getting speeding tickets, parking tickets, smoking pot and drinking too. Athens and Clark County police simply won't cover it up.


You’re acting like people are upset over a 19-year-old with a joint and an unpaid parking ticket. That’s not what anyone is talking about.

The criticism exists because UGA has had repeated reckless driving incidents after a fatal crash involving people connected to the program. At some point, “everyone speeds” stops being a convincing excuse when the same headlines keep happening around one team.

And sure, other schools have players getting tickets too. The difference is most programs haven’t become nationally associated with dangerous driving behavior to this extent. That’s why people bring up UGA specifically.

“Police don’t cover it up” also isn’t the flex you think it is. If anything, it just means the incidents are happening often enough to keep becoming public.

Even Oklahoma -probably the biggest revenue-generating softball program in the country - still reportedly lost about $2.9 million despite generating over $4 million in revenue and huge ticket sales at Love’s Field.

Oklahoma University exceeds $200M in expenses

Batter A hits a grounder to SS. Run scores, fielder's choice at 2nd. Batter A gets a RBI
Batter A = 2 RP = 1 run + 1 rbi



This is flawed because Batter A will not count as a Run it is only scored as an RBI, as to Batter A did not score in this scenario.

So, for your scenario for Batter A his RP is only 1 because of the RBI

The only time a batter will get a Run and RBI at the same at bat is when that batter hits a home run.

so it isnt 10% of the over all production of the team


Yeah that’s basically the point I’m making.

You can’t turn it into a percentage of total team runs because the formula isn’t measuring team runs - it’s measuring player involvement in scoring plays.

Every run (outside of solo HR logic) is going to show up as both a run and an RBI across players, so when you total it up, it’s naturally going to exceed the actual team run total. That’s not a flaw - that’s just how participation works.


That’s why I’m not trying to say “he accounts for X% of the offense.” I’m saying he shows up in a high number of scoring events.

So, when you see a number like 76, it’s not “out of 33 runs” - it’s “how many times he was directly part of producing a run,” whether scoring it or driving it in.

Two different things entirely.


And also, Mad Dogg, going back to my original post, I never said anything about 10%.

That got brought in by someone else and they were arguing a completely different point than what I was saying.

I’m not talking about percentage of team runs at all. This is exactly what I said from the start, it’s just about runs a player is involved in (run productivity), not their share of total runs scored.
quote:

Sticking with my original assessment that y’all aren’t good with math. By your logic, a solo home run accounts for 2 runs, since one was driven in and scored. And there are 66 runs to account for. Maybe just talk ball and lay off the math?


Nope, let’s take Jake Brown for instance:

He has scored 43 runs, has 49 RBIs, and 16 home runs. Since home runs show up in both runs scored and RBIs, you subtract the number of home runs from the RBI total so it’s not being double counted. After that, you add the adjusted RBIs to runs scored to get total run productivity.

R + (RBI - HR) = run productivity

43 + (49 - 16) = 76 runs involved in producing

It’s not meant to be a perfect metric - it’s just a quick way to show how often he’s directly involved in producing runs without double counting home runs.
quote:

It equals run production, and the equation is actually runs + RBI - home runs. But since Reaves has no home runs, it's the same thing


Thanks, mdomingue, I wasn't going to try and explain it to him because he couldn't comprehend the initial post. He would probably get lost there.
