Aggy Game Thread

Welp glad that's over with

Agreed. Now onto the Regionals. If I had to guess we will be sent to an ACC school or be sent West. I think there is a small chance we end up in Ft Worth but we have been sent to an ACC regional all but 3 times this century if we did not host. I would look for that trend to continue.

[StarkVegasSteve]

We've hosted supers as a 2

That was also when you could bid on Supers. They did away with that process.

This team is what it is.

Kentucky isn't very good and we had them in Starkville.

We beat Ole Miss regularly.

Mizzou sucks.

I agree. I doubt we sweep KY without the coaching change but the rest of it would have likely gone as it went no matter who the coach. I will still be surprised if we make it out of a regional.

How are Super locations decided these days if two 2 seeds are playing against each other?

[mparkerfd20]

The entire site field is seeded. The higher seeded site gets the Super in that case.

Generally it will go to the two seed that came out of the higher ranked regional. For example, if we are the 3 and we come out of the 14th ranked regional host site and the 3 opposite of us comes out of the number 3 ranked host site they will host. It would have worked to our advantage in 18 but the NCAA said our stadium was still a construction site so they gave it to Vandy.

Yea but that's irrelevant in the 2 vs 3 debate.
If we are a 2, we have a much better chance to host a super than if we are a 3.

We also will not be getting to a Super so it is irrelevant that way as well.

Much better might be a stretch. We?d be a low 2 seed so the only chance of hosting is to have the opposite 3 or 4 seed advance out of their regional. Maybe there is another couple of 2 seeds ranked behind us as well. Or we?d be a high 3 seed in which case we would still need the 3 or 4 seed to advance out of the opposite regional.

Unless I?m completely misunderstanding how the hosting rankings work

Was this our first time to be shut out this season?

[EdwardDrayton]

No need to throw Pico they said. It'll be fine they said.

I mean did you really want to win a meaningless game in a meaningless tournament and AGAIN move Pico up a day on short rest for a 9:30 AM game? That is asking for arm issues.

[Pancho]

Did he ask for the ball?

And Pico would have lost as well. You cant win if you can't score.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Correct. Because we also made 3-4 errors.

[EdwardDrayton]

Yeah that'll all make us feel better. *****

[EdwardDrayton]

Make the announcement so we can clear the rest of this cut rate staff out now.

[Dawgology]

Well…they can’t field balls well either.

[parabrave]

His only shot at playing what is technically professional baseball would be getting on with the Mississippi Mud Monsters.

Nope he will make AA and then if he doesn't change his approach at the plate thats as far as he will go. The guy who set the minor league HR record is now a pitching coach in the minors.

The entire site field is seeded. The higher seeded site gets the Super in that case.

In NCAA college baseball's super regional round, the team with the higher national seed typically hosts the best-of-three series against the other team. If both teams are regional seeds but not national seeds, the higher regional seed hosts. If both are equal seeds, they will bid for hosting rights based on criteria like facility quality and revenue potential.

The crazy issue was Arkansas hosting National seed Missouri State because a minor league team owns the MOState stadium. The minor league team in question seem like ass holes for not working out a DH of College and Minor games. Would have a bumper weekend of concessions, parking passes, and hotels.
