Upsets in other conferences may end up kicking WVU out of a tourney bid. Hate that.
Wow. We took the TCU (ranked #10) series on the road. We also beat a very good Central Michigan team twice (Ranked #16). Our RPI was in the 30's just a week ago, and were a lock for the tourney. It slipped to around 50 after the two Big 12 tourney losses. Pretty bad to be a lock to being out of the field after just two games, but the 53 previous games don't matter anymore.No one to blame but ourselves if WVU does not get a tournament bid. We had a shot at plenty of good teams in the Big 12. I'm not sure WVU won any series vs ranked Big 12 teams this year.
Upsets happen everywhere. WVU had no pitching and scrapped for runs when on base. They had a far better season than many expected.Not even 1st 4 or next 4 out. Dropped like a rock.

Most wins ever in Big 12 baseball for WVU. Many upsets in other conference tournaments and WVU quick exit from BIG 12 did them in. WVU was not even predicted to have a winning record but thy out did themselves. Lack of pitching and timely hitting was their worse enemy. It does matter when there are many upsets in in other conferences tourney's. All WVU had to do to get in is win one tournament game. The chance for that win was against a poor KSU team they just swept over the weekend.TCU finished 18th. They may have been 10 at the time. Reason why this is relevant is because Central Michigan was ranked 16 at the start of the season. Now they are unranked. Current rankings are far more indicative of how good a team actually was/is.
So WVU won one series against a good team in TCU, but failed to do so against OSU, Oklahoma, and Texas. All I am saying is WVU had our shot at good teams in conference play to cement our resume and failed. Then we got a bad draw in the tournament, again because we failed to capitalize on regular season opportunities, and didn't rise to that occasion. So sure WVU is not a bad team and is not completely undeserving of a tournament spot. However this is not a surging team being held back by early season setbacks or an out of the ordinary rash of injuries. Hence, if WVU does not make the tournament, it is due more so to our lack of performance than it is outside forces like automatic bids for conference tournament winners.
Hmmmmm .... what was wrong with Allen's post? Just facts. Did I miss something?The Allen "Excuse Machine " is running at full power!
"All WVU had to do to get in is win one tournament game." This is not a fact; it is an opinion, assumption, and rank speculation. WVU wasn't in the first four out, so there is no way to prove that WVU would've been selected for the NCAA Tournament had it beaten a bad Kansas State team in the Big 12 Tournament.Hmmmmm .... what was wrong with Allen's post?

Why does a self-professed osu fan hang out 24/7 on a WVU board?"All WVU had to do to get in is win one tournament game." This is not a fact; it is an opinion, assumption, and rank speculation.

He is right about a Kansas win getting them in is an opinion/assumption. However, the rest was facts. Nowhere did I see excuses as was claimed. And, I tend to agree with you WVU Fan!Why does a self-professed osu fan hang out 24/7 on a WVU board?
How cute... you got your queenie like....BRAVO!Wooda...coulda... shoulda...rinse... repeat.
Kansas STATE......not Kansas.He is right about a Kansas win getting them in is an opinion/assumption. However, the rest was facts. Nowhere did I see excuses as was claimed. And, I tend to agree with you WVU Fan!
He's just trolling.Why does a self-professed osu fan hang out 24/7 on a WVU board?
