Hey, I'm in my wifes basement. Besides, I don't do the polls. :yahoo: :lol: How do you know I wear pajamas anyway?
Your wife has your webcam brodcasting to the internet. We see everything your doing. :o
Actually, Kendall probably gets a better read on whats going on than most polls do. Face it, WSU's schedule ain't exactly one to shirk in fear over.
Funny, WSU SOS is just as good (if not better) than 14 teams ranked ahead of it in the rivals poll.
8. Arizona (13-5) SOS - 59
9. Vanderbilt (14-6) SOS-83
10. S. Car (15-5) SOS - 41
11. Rice (17-6) SOS - 55
12. Texas (16-6) SOS - 77
13. Pepperdine (15-7) SOS - 69
15. California (15-4) SOS - 46
16. Nebraska (16-3) SOS - 54
17. San Diego (16-7) SOS - 79
18. Flroida (17-4) SOS - 38
19. Ole Miss (15-8 ) SOS - 73
20. Kentucky (20-2) SOS 221
23. Baylor (13-7) SOS - 29
24. WSU (14-3) SOS - 37
SB Shock: The Rivals poll is one of the five polls linked here http://www.ncaa-baseball.com/ and therefore needs to be taken "seriously" (for PR purposes if nothing else) because this page may be popular (e.g. lots of nice information in one place).
It's not even a poll - it's done by a guy named Kendal.
No, I will not take it seriously because before it wa rivals it was a B12 site. I read what Kendal had said about WSU when he ran the B12 site. He doesn't like WSU, doesn't respect the program and he uses his medium to take his backhanded slaps at WSU.
There are 3 polls that mean anything.
1. Collegiate Baseball
2. Baseball America
3. ESPN/Coaches Poll
Each have their biases and opinions. But at least they are run by knowledgable people.
I would add a fourth to that list and that being the NCBWA or National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association poll. That is the one that ncaa-baseball.com uses when posting scores.

I am no way defending Mizzou's sweep of Baylor but Mizzou has some stellar pitching. Crow (isnt he from Topeka) would be a top 3 pick in the draft. Mizzou is a very strong team.
Having said that, I agree WSU deserves to be ranked higher.
Not a good week in athletics for Baylor--i guess we still have the chicks playing ball though.
Crow's from Wakarusa and you're right Missouri's pitching has been amazing so far this season. I still wish that Mizzou and Wichita St. would play every season, but I don't know if it will happen in the near future.
