If we win game 2, which we should, but anything is possible in this game, neither of them is coming out of loser's bracket to beat us. I just like the matchups of both myself.
Yeah it makes sense. I just don't like playing teams you've already played bc the team that lost always seems more motivated. The same reason I would like our chances vs. Arkansas if we play them again. We're definitely set up perfectly to navigate a regional though with our depth.

I forgot about that as well.

If we can get Arky in Omaha I like our chances. OM and Arky are at a disadvantage if they make it to Omaha because balls die in Omaha that get out of other parks. Add on to that Arky has shaky at best bullpen depth outside of Kopps and it's a recipe for a quick exit in Omaha if you catch a bad matchup and no wind.
