NCAA Regional Thread

[MagnoliaVol]

YEEHAW let's get this going, guys! Man it feels great knowing we'll be hearing our name called somewhere tomorrow. Been way too long, and I hope it's just the start of many more. GB!!!

Bummed Miami crapped the bed against UNC, was looking forward to going to some games.

SEC has 6 regional hosts. Pretty good at that baseball thing.

Yes they are. Toughest sport to compete in in the conference, IMO, but by golly we're starting to gain some traction though!

Returned from Hoover last night. A bit toasted, but saw some great baseball. Thrilled that Vols will be in a regional & not too far away. OK, next fan up...hope lots of TENNESSEE fans make the trip to Greenville.

 

[zachpack]

Greenville? I’d take it or Chapel Hill

 

[Boca Vol]

Baseball America has UT as a 3 seed at Oregon St.! That's some BS!

That means UT would be last at- large team in the tourney just based on the seeds...

I really hope we’re a 2. Could see us in Morgantown, Chapel Hill, Atlanta, Greenville, or Louisville. Don’t want to be shipped out west.

It would mean its one of the last 16 teams in

Just from a pure math perspective, if you are in the 15th seeds regional, you are the 2nd lowest 3 seed (and all other seeds below them are auto bids). Factor in the travel and Baseball America isnt as high on us as we are. (I'm aware that theres some 2-3 adjusting for travel reasons)

There's no way UF should get a more favorable draw...

If UT gets this draw, that would be a screw job...

Really no difference between a 2 or 3. Agreed with hoping for those spots but the seed is much less important than the site

 

[TNSportsman]

I think we end up as a 2 or 3 at UNC, ECU or WVU.

 

[Vol Fan 5]

Top four national seeds are UGA Vandy UCLA and GT in no particular order.

Doesn’t Serrano work for Baseball America...conspiracy theorist in me wants to know.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Can it get to Noon already, anticipation is killing me.

 

[txbo]

T minus 4 minutes.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Let's go!

 

[vol66]

Here we go...

 

[Gilbert]

Man 2005 was ages ago. We’ve certainly walked through the wilderness.

 

[txbo]

Damn, the top seeds seem familiar.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Arkansas will walk through that regional.

 

[MagnoliaVol]

Well at least we didn't get shipped out to Corvallis.

 

[appyvol]

Figured Florida was in, but still hoping they wasn't.

 

[Gilbert]

Lots of intra-conference matchups in the supers if it’s chalky. Probably by design.
