As the #2. Matched up with Oklahoma. Samford the #4.

Seems like a familiar scene.

It is beautiful this time of year

I’ll be in Tehran for some R&R, so y’all keep me posted.

Check out Gilaneh Restaurant in the 3rd District. One of finest morgh torsh kebap you can find.

I always have trouble accessing my espn3 stream when I visit though. I have yet to find a workaround.

Since when do they pair regional hosts from the same conference? I thought that was a no-no.

Only a no no if both are seeded #1. They’ll match up a #1 and a #2 from the same conference.

Clemson and FSU are both no. 1s

I think the real answer has to do with seeding the hosts 1-16 instead of only 1-8

Oh wow. They’ve changed it then. And not for the better. Makes no sense to seed 1-16. Nobody knows which team is 13th & which is 14th for example.

Yes, they changed it this year. Did you not watch the show? Spent a bunch of time talking about it

I mean, I'm not shocked that we have a bunch of posters sharing their opinion without the information, but yeah, they changed it

No. I didn’t watch the show. Played tennis for 3 hrs then a cookout. Literally the only thing I know is our regional. That’s really all I care about anyway. Still think it’s bad, but not the first bad decision the NCAA has made.

It's actually a very good change. If you're the #1 seed (Florida) you should draw the worst #1 seed for your Super Regional (NC State), rather than some sort of geographical matchup like Clemson or FSU. In previous years they might have even drawn Texas Tech, who just missed out on being a national Top 8 seed.

Conversely, if you're the #9, you'd much rather face the #8 in a Super than the #1, which could have happened in the past.

This is better.

I’ve been following this since the 70s and this is getting real boring. We’ve been to Tallahassee so manyyimesI can’t even remember.

The Phyrst was a great bar. Bladder bust. Loved to have gone to school there. Wouldn't want my daughter to be a Chi O down there

That's assuming anyone has a clue who #9 is. Or if #9 will even win their regional. It's a crapshoot. I just don't like matching up conference teams before the CWS.
