We are going to Manhattan, Kansas in February, or are playing KState somewhere a bit warmer ? I cannot access the link.

Unless they play in a domed stadium, that's borderline insane. But, then again, I think a World Series should be concluded before November too.

Hey, if we get rained out, maybe we can host them in April. Would be pretty wild to see a Big 12 team play in Worcester.
Ah, Pete Hughes is their coach, that explains the trip.

Still don't see many midweek Big 12 trips anywhere but with Northeastern and UConn being RPI quality programs it makes sense to play them. They probably would add a game against UConn or Northeastern before playing more against HC.

I believe the team is playing in Hawaii this year. More than makes up for playing in Kansas.

BC game has been scheduled for March in recent years and always postponed when at Fitton - Eagles 2024 schedule we just released and we’re not on it - we should play them in an April midweek spot

Did you miss the part where I said "if they get rained out"? They wouldn't be playing MORE games against HC.

Like the K-State game at a warmer neutral site but not excited about Manhattan in February. Hawaii is huge. Not sure about odds in that game but a deserving trip for the boys. Disappointing we don't have another crack at beating BC. Solid northeast non-conference that could be winnable.

The BC game brought nothing to the Eagles besides hurting their RPI even if they won the game. It is a good move for BC to play better quality opponents over HC.

Classic Foley line. 1 game out of 50 hurts the precious Eagles RPI. They haven't won national championship in a while now. All those losing ACC records.

BC has 3 NCAA appearances to Holy Cross 1 in the last 45 years. They even have a Super Regional appearance.

Playing HC does almost nothing to the BC RPI.

Holy Cross hasn't won two games in a single NCAA Tournament since 1963. If BC had played the Holy Cross game last season (it was PPD) it would have hurt their end of season #22 RPI and made them a weaker NCAA seed.

They had 1 good year chill out. They don't even charge for baseball games.
