So, we're visitors tomorrow afternoon?

[CochiseCowbell]

Is this correct?

 

[aTotal360]

Think so. Pickering is one of them I believe. There is a dead period that starts sometime soon.

I think he is talking baseball, not football 'crootin.

Yes. We were home team in round 1 because we were the higher seed (2 vs 3). NC was home team in their round 1 game because they were even seeds (1 vs 1, national seeding not mattering) and won a coin toss. For round two, we won the coin toss to be home team (2 times now) and OSU lost the coin toss (0 times as home). OSU was home team in elimination game 1 because UNC had already been home 1 time while OSU had been home team 0 times. Now, OSU has been home team 1 time and we've been home team 2 times. They are automatically home team tomorrow. If we go to Saturday, we are automatically home team because we'll have both been home team twice, but in matchups between MSU and OSU, OSU has been home once and MSU home none. Simple?

Also, Arkansas will automatically be home team tomorrow since they have not been home team yet and both TTU and Florida have been home team. If it's Arkansas vs Florida, Arkansas would be home team on both Friday and Saturday (if necessary), while they would be visiting team on Saturday against TTU.

Edit: Wrong info from the NCAA website. We are visitor because we are equal with OSU on home games, but they have been visitor one more time.

In other words, e=mc squared

Home Team. The highest-seeded teams advancing from super-regional tournaments shall be thehome teams for the first-round contests. In the event of a match-up between equally seeded teams,a coin flip will determine the home team. One team will be designated as “heads”, the other teamwill be designated as “tails” and the coin will be flipped by the NCAA representative. Heads andtails designation will be determined by alphabetical order of the name of the institution (i.e., firstalphabetically being heads, second alphabetically being tails).

In subsequent games, the home team shall be determined according to the following formula:
1. The institution that has been the home team the fewer number of times shall be designatedthe home team.
2. If the two teams are equal in this respect but unequal in the number of times they were thevisitor, then the team that has been the visitor more often will be designated the home team.
3. If the two teams are equal in the number of times that they have been home and visitor, thegames committee or the NCAA site representative shall observe the following procedures inthe order stated:
a. If the two teams have met previously in that particular tournament, the visitor in theprevious game shall be the home team in the game in question.
b. The team that was visitor in its preceding game shall be the home team, unless bothteams were visitors in their preceding games.
c. If the above procedures do not resolve the matter, the home team shall be determinedby coin toss. The coin toss will be held on the field immediately after the game thatcaused the situation to develop and both coaches are requested to be in attendance. Thehigher seeded team can determine whether it will call the coin toss, or defer the call toits opponent. In the event of a match-up between equally seeded teams, one team willbe designated as “heads”, the other team will be designated as “tails” and the coin willbe flipped by the NCAA representative. Heads and tails designation will be determinedby alphabetical order of the name of the institution (i.e., first alphabetically being heads,second alphabetically being tails).

Just interpreting the rules.

Wasn't taking a shot at ya, homie. It was just a lot to digest. Thanks for doing it.

We were the visiting team against UNC. Arkansas was the home team in their first game against Texas.

Man, this would be like the best explanation ever...if it were only true.** We were visitors against UNC. We've only been the home team once.

 

[rynodawg]

Also Oregon St was home in their first Round 1 game, not UNC. Now I’m more confused than ever.

 

[Dawgzilla]

So, no chance for a walkoff by the Dawgs.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Thanks for the info, though.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

That's what I get for looking at the bracket on the NCAA's website. Honestly, who lists games that way?

Previous games:
MSU - HV
OSU - HVV

So we're visitors tomorrow because we've both been home team once, but they've been visitors more. Saturday we would be home.

On the other side:

Ark - HV
TTU - VH(V)
UF - HV(H)

Games in parentheses are today. So Arkansas would be visitor then home against TTU and home then visitor against Florida.

Just means your are locked and loaded on recruiting.
No shame in that!

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

I hate me.

Wipe it off brah. Not a problem really.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

The thing I don't like is that the reason they've been visitors twice while we haven't is due to them losing & having an extra game. I know the stats show that it really doesn't matter, but I still don't like it. I guess it's good that we are home IF, & I hope not, we have a second game.

That said, I am in complete disagreement with a Grand Slam resulting in zero earned runs & I also use ME for Mental Errors on my scorecard at games I attend.

 

[Drebin]

Sure, we are gonna walk off after Self pitches a 1-2-3 ninth.**
