Virginia did not make it in.

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.

[basedog]

Virginia is Fixn decide if they want to commit to baseball.

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

2021 was easier.

[StarkVegasSteve]

2021 was easier.

We had to get past Notre Dame, who may have been a top 5 team at the end of the year.

Yes. Best hitting team in the nation at the time. Most thought they would beat us.

Nice opportunity for us to scout the Northeastern roster for transfers

[KOdawg1]

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.

[confucius say]

NE is 40-4 vs quad 3/4
For reference, we are 23-1

[confucius say]

We will be the highest rpi team NE has played this year. Our rpi is 35.

[HoopsDawg]

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!

I believe that loss was to South Carolina if I remember correctly.

Which is probably why we will end up having to start Pico on Friday. I think we gorilla ball Northeastern on Friday.

I think that's fine. Save Siary for Florida State and hope has a performance like he did against Ole Miss.

[StarkVegasSteve]

That's the only way we win. Unless we just go 2018 team in the last two days of that regional and Gorilla Ball people to death. I think we hit like 6 HRs in our last 3 games and scored like 30 runs.
