Getting either team wasn't going to be a net positive for being able to widdle away some late season statement wins when all the major teams are playing huge matchups this time of year. Playing Marshall might work out better for RPI since they are already 3X on the previous schedule. The downside is facing a lineup for the 4th time as recently as last weekend who was very much unintimidated by Mullins.
To our benefit: Alabama lost, and Georgia walked off Auburn in 14 innings. Still to come today: Arkansas vs Mizzou, Stanford vs Cal, Notre Dame vs FSU, Georgia Tech vs Virginia Tech, Florida vs TBD, UVA vs Clemson
