KeaneyBlue - The URI Basketball Forum

Looked at the Jeff Sagarin Rankings for College Football today
253 Total Teams in Rankings that include FCS and FBS Teams
URI is ranked 232

Next 2 games:
Saturday November 12 @ Elon 1:30pm.......Elon ranked 214
Saturday November 19 Home vs Towson 12pm Senior Day.......Towson ranked 185

Some other rankings of interest worse than URI:
Davidson is last at 253
Valparaiso 250
Butler 245
Marist 240

Teams of interest just slightly higher than URI:
Georgetown 244
Brown 217
Bryant 209
Dayton 203

We're not the worst after all?!

Yeah! We're number 232!!! Somebody print up some t-shirts!

So you are saying we have a chance....

Is this post intended to be some sort of silver lining to the 84-7 bloodbath?

Should I be taking solace in the fact we're 232nd in the country?

I don't know what formula Sagarin uses and frankly I don't care. I look at last weeks box score and have a tough time believing there are 20 football programs worse than URI's right now.

I don't know about that 232 ranking. Has any other school ever had a game called with the seldom used Sympathy Rule?

What sympathy rule?

The game wasn't ended early as was thought. This was a misunderstanding of someone's earlier post.

Exactly. There was no sympathy rule.

Meant to a joke.

Let's look on the bright side for a second.

We didn't lose today!
