College Baseball Weekend 13 Preview + ABS in SEC + DSR/KPI/RPI MiniGame

from 11Point7: The College Baseball Podcast · host 11Point7

The 11.7 podcast crew (Ben, Jack, Dimitri, and Noah) previews the weekend and recaps midweek action while promoting Dimitri’s 20-minute interview with NCAA Baseball Rules Committee Chair and Xavier head coach Billy O’Conner about introducing the ABS challenge system at the SEC tournament. They debate ABS impacts, challenge strategy, Trackman accuracy, and how tech affects umpiring and “content,” plus discuss other rules topics from the interview like the runner’s lane rule and why enlarging bases is costly for turf fields. The group talks about the Patriot League Baseball Tournament encourages donations to a GoFundMe for Bucknell coach Scott Heather, and reviews RPI cancellation “bingo.” Noah hosts a metrics mini-game comparing RPI, KPI, and DSR for bubble teams (including Clemson, LSU, Vanderbilt, Mercer, Purdue, TCU, and others), leading into DSR discussion and a plug for Jack’s upcoming podcast with 643’s Forrest Allen. 00:00 Show kickoff and agenda 00:45 Promoting Billy OConner interview 03:05 Botched intro and cold open jokes 07:02 ABS debate and big picture impact 14:29 ABS satire and challenge chaos 16:29 Trackman accuracy and logistics 18:23 Rules talk runner lane and bases 21:13 Omaha plans and side challenges 23:02 Weekend pick em setup and records 27:45 Patriot League tourney and Bucknell 29:38 GoFundMe support and donations 31:08 Rapid fire series picks begin 32:54 Big 12 and SEC Picks 34:39 Demetri Signs Off 36:25 SoCon Showdown Preview 39:42 Sun Belt Clash Styles 41:47 Pokes vs Sun Devils 44:35 Mountaineers at Jayhawks 47:50 Aggies at Swayze 52:41 OVC Deep Cut Pick 56:38 Wild Names and No Hitters 58:13 Tiger Talk Bubble Debate 01:01:55 Clemson Purify Impact 01:04:19 RPI Rant and Fairness 01:12:13 Bracket Complaints Banter 01:12:47 RPI Bingo Card Explained 01:16:22 Best RPI Cancellations 01:19:56 Bubble Metrics Mini Game 01:22:59 Team By Team Outliers 01:30:09 DSR And Pythag Deep Dive 01:36:33 Final Round LSU Clemson 01:47:01 Upset Picks And Wrap Up
