6 SEC teams in the top 8
1 Vanderbilt (1)
2 Louisville
3 East Tennessee State
4 Wright State
Like I was saying yesterday, wild how somebody's going to get us as their 3, and somebody's going to get East Tennessee State...
1 Southern Miss (16)
2 Alabama
3 Miami
4 Columbia
Was hoping for Hattiesburg. Oh well.
3 seed in Tallahassee
1 Florida State (9)
2 Northeastern
3 Mississippi State
4 Bethune-Cookman
Tallahassee once again.
Back in Tallahassee. And we get Northeastern. I love that draw.
We may hit 194858384293 HRs in that stadium this weekend. Northeastern has not played a team like us.
We are in. 3 seed fsu. Playing northeastern. Hottest team in baseball supposedly
Shitty draw again in the postseason this year.
1 Oregon State (8)
2 TCU
3 USC
4 St. Mary's
If we can win our Regional, we'd face the winner of this one.
How? Do you really think Northeastern is one of the 32 best teams in the country?Quote:

They have played 5 P4 teams and no weekend series against them. Also consider this, they are used to playing in the northeast and are about to head to Tallahassee where the humidity will be sitting at around 105. I think they wilt pretty quickly. They remind me of Fairfield a few years ago when everyone thought they were going to make a run because they led the country in wins.Quote:

And Northeastern had a good year, but come on, every single player on their roster would have transferred to a power conference school if they'd had the chance.
"That's baseball" still applies and we could obviously lose a game to either of them, but will be pretty surprised if we come in 3rd or especially 4th in this Regional.
What I?m saying is we?re are set in as a mid 3 seed, never even got close to the 2 line.Quote:

This thing may turn into the SEC Invitational real quick. All the SEC teams have great draws so far.
I'd rather play as a 3 with Northeastern and Bethune Cookman than as a 2 with a major conference 3 and a non-terrible 4.Quote:

Committee doesn't match up things like that. They do 16 2-seeds, 3-seeds, and 4-seeds. And then they just match things up based on location / conference / etc.Quote:

Virginia did not make it in.
tick tock
I was surprised. Especially when I saw some of the teams that did make it. I didn't think they would get left out just because they didn't play FSU due to a school shooting.Quote:

Hello Omaha. If we have even a decent team this is the easiest draw we've had in 25 years.
2021 was easier.Quote:

Northeastern doesn't scare me. They pitch it well but they have average hitters and haven't played anyone.
Florida State is pretty good though. That won't be easy.
Yes. Easier when you host. They can see your stadium and the Mississippi females.Quote:

We will be the highest rpi team NE has played this year. Our rpi is 35.
Any time you can avoid the SEC on the way to Omaha it's a good thing.
I'm more worried about their base running. For obvious reasons!Quote:
