Re: MAAC Record 14-21 -- Frank F, 03:30:03pm 12/02/05 Fri, [1]
I am glad you are impressed with a 14-21 record - I must say I am not. With people being so easily impressed, its no wonder the MAAC is so awful. The MAAC has one significant win in 35 games - that is the Iona win over Iowa St.

Thanks for pointing that out. You're right. We should probably all just put on UConn sweatshirts and save ourselves all this futility.

Frank... -- GuyF, 09:19:18pm 12/02/05 Fri, [1]
We're 14-21, that's true.
Now, a side project for you: please count up how many of those 35 games that the MAAC was the home team for.
Will save you the time. Twelve. The MAAC has been home for 12 of the 35 games. The actual tally is 12 home games, 3 neutral site games (MAAC is 2-1 in these), and 20 road games. Oh, and there were 11 games in there against power conference (BCS conferences). How many games did you expect to win?
You said that there was only one quality win the Iowa State game. That's pretty much true. How many really piss-poor losses were there--truly games the MAAC should have won but didn't? Two? Three?
All of this suggests that the MAAC has done well--not spectacular, but well. Don't forget that the league saw a LOT of key players graduate, which means a lot of younger lineups. You see that youth when you see close losses, just like you see veteran play when you see close wins (see Iona).
The only MAAC program that has completely been a disappointment is Canisius. You guys might include yourselves, but it likely wouldn't have been that bad if you had DMax. You also have played a pretty tough schedule. Manhattan hasn't been great either but their schedule has been pretty nasty as well.

I agree with some of what you have said, however in my universe 14-21 is a terrible record. I don't care whether its on our court or in Tokyo, I really don't care if Maxwell is out (other teams have players injured or suspended), and I don't care if key players graduated (don't they graduate from other schools too?).
The bottom line is there is no athletic league in the world where a 14-21 record is doing "well".

More MAAC Losses -- Frank F, 11:33:20pm 12/02/05 Fri, [1]
MAAC goes 0-2 tonight including Canisius losing to Fairly Ridiculous on their home court. 14-23 record.
By the logic of some on this board, I suppose now the league is doing even better than yesterday, when we were 14-21.

Re: MAAC Record 19-22 -- JCM, 11:49:22pm 12/03/05 Sat, [1]
Good day for the Maac. League goes 5-1 with Fairfield, Marist, Siena, Rider and Loyola winning. Niagara the lone loser tonight. I believe that makes the Maac about 19-22 and should help the RPI a little. However each of the teams that lost to a Maac opponent today was 1-4 or 1-5, so the Maac beat up on some pretty weak teams tonight.

Questions on RPI Sites -- Reindeer Fan, 11:55:01pm 12/03/05 Sat, [1]
Does anyone know of a site that updates RPI automatically as the scored come in. Every site I go to is at least a day behind, some as much as a week...

It says updated every 5 minutes, but at 8:15 am on Sunday, it still shows the Stags as being 0-4.

Good weekend for the MAAC -- Frank F, 11:36:24am 12/04/05 Sun, [1]
I think Niagara was the only MAAC team to lose.
Things are looking a little better.
