I'm not saying it doesn't happen. It's baseball. A few good swings here and there will win you a game. I was simply suggesting that on a day in day out basis the D-1 teams would win the majority of the games. The simple fact of the mattter is the D-1 schools are just overall more talented baseball teams and if they weren't they wouldn't be in the D-1 classification. What you are saying is if a select few NAIA schools were thrown in with Marshall, Western Kentucky, EKU, Morehead, and Murray State they would be on the top of this list. Heck it may happen, I doubt it but you must know something I don't. For the most part aren't the NAIA schools put at the first of the D-1 teams schedule? So more than likely they are in their non-conference schedule too.

You dont know where any would rank until you play the game, that's all just speculation, but I think they would be more than competetive. Again we are talking selective schools, not the whole organization. On a regular basis Cumberland U.(Tenn) may rank only behind Vandy , Walters State, and UT in the state of Tennessee. This year, Lee University is the top team. Seeing that Tennesse is heavy with OVC teams.........

Georgetown played EKU 2 weeks ago, and then had their second game rained out last week and I think has Morehead this week. Morehead played Lindsey and Georgetown last season right in the middle of the conference schedule. Morehead played KIAC Alice Lloyd just last week. Univ. of the Cumberlands plays Belmont tommorrow.

Again there is no question that your typical D1 school is deeper. Just that what we compare to around this area is primarily the OVC. Marshall is in conference USA, no way they would compete in that conference. Western is in the Sun Belt, again no way. Not trying to imply that any would be at the forefront on any conference. Maybe I came across that way, but I dont think they would be doormats in say the OVC by any means either.
