Opponent Games and Scores

Not worried about Oakland beating us at home.  We eliminate each of their offensive options, except for Felder.  Felder can't beat us on his own...

Wish we had eliminated Benzinger as an offensive option like we do with Oakland's other options. If we had we might still be undefeated at the ARC.

Top win = RPI 36 Oregon St. 
2nd best win = RPI 67 IPFW  Don't want to sound like an Oakland fan but we had the lead going into halftime at RPI #3 Oregon.   
Worse lose = twice to WSU rpi 162
2nd worse lose = Ball St. is 151. 
Bad wins Chicago st. 346 and UIC twice #348.
