As you state below, I think there play here at RPI was less than impressive,
although you did get to see RPI instead of those frauds that show up from
time to time :)  Still, they got butchered.  How did they DO against those
other teams they "play"?  Playing isn't good enough you have to win  (which
they may or may not have done, I don't know).

The loss was in Troy, home of the Troy Record :)  Seems a lot less biased
now, doesn't it? <g>
