Basically stating that he had beaten two teams in regular season series that jumped K State for a regional. What good if conference play when you are not going to count wins.
Also, SJSU and Stanford. Teacher vs student, as Sanfalippo was on Esquer's staff at Cal.
Ironically, one of the main reasons Texas Tech and Oklahoma had a better RPI than K State was both teams playing Stanford. Also, on the topic of coaches in the Stanford Regional, Texas A&M has one of the best in the business. Jim Schlossnagle (former TCU coach) has a solid post season track record. In his team's last 10 postseason trips they have made it to Omaha 6 times and the Super Regionals once. Only one of those was at A & M. A & M was a top 5 in preseason polls (right next to Stanford) this year.
