Tennessee, Winthop and Whichta State can all 3 make a run to Omaha, this is one tough draw.

I don't really understand how they seeded these teams. We are not one of the top 8 seeds and Ole Miss is #5 even though their conference record is not as good (their overall record is better I see). However, we got a really tough Super Regional in GT who is the #2 seed overall. I know they probably do that to keep geographic balance but if you could look, it appears like we are the #15 seed. That seems low to me.

But what do I know????

Wow, Iorg is out for the weekend with a stress fracture. That hurts.

Looks like Witchita State has quite the pitcher:

Pelfrey is 12-2 with a 1.91 ERA. Opponents are hitting .194 against the 6-foot-7 right-hander — he’s allowed 88 hits in 131 2/3 innings — and he has a nearly 5-to-1 strikeout/walk ratio (136-28).

Ole Miss made it to the SEC final. Other than that, I don't see what has them seeded above UT. The only way to explain odd seedings for the NCAAs in any sports is that it must have been dome to somehow make money.
