D1 has six sec hosts. Wow.

I love how now all the west coast coaches want to cry about rpi. The fullerton coach doesnt even seem to understand it. He says they just need to make their schedule easier and play teams like ms valley. Heis not an avid reader.

Really need alabama st to lose the swac tourney

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that. They are 21-0 in conference play and their starting rotation has phenomenal numbers.

SWAC or not, they're a solid team. Should we beat them? Of course. But they would be more than capable of pulling a Jackson State vs. ULL on us if they were to end up here.

So you're correct, it would be awesome if someone else won the SWAC.

That would be the most Miss State thing ever to be a national seed and lose to Alabama State.

I mean we are talking about a team that is 6-3 against Vandy, Florida, and LSU but 0-4 against Florida Atlantic, Eastern Kentucky, and Oral Roberts.

FAU and ORU are decent, but still.

Didn't we lose a game to Oral Roberts early in the year? Obviously, I could check the schedule but I'm too lazy.

I'll be very surprised if we're not matched with Hattiesburg...

with either UM or LSU as their 2 seed. That is, of course, if we finish strong and get a national seed.

Only one of those is a truly bad loss. FAU is #29 and ORU is #73, those aren't resume killers.

Baseball America's projections aren't even worth looking at...

Ever since Aaron Fitt left for D1, their projections haven't been worth a ****. Some of the hosts and pairings don't make any sense. The committee might as well just take D1's final projected bracket, modify it a little to make it look like their own, and spit it out. It's solid.

D1 is the best in the business. Easily. I don't even look at any other site's polls or projections.

I still say USM falters down the stretch and we end up a #2 in Starkville or Oxford.

But, if we do finish strong and host, I imagine we get an SEC school as our #2 (probably LSU). Maybe SELA as our #3 (hopefully not 4, they'd be the strongest 4 in the field). Then possibly SEMO or ORU as our #4.

That Oxford regional would be brutal. 4 seed SELA and 3 seed Cal. I could easily see those teams as 2 and 3 seeds.
