So, if Horns win the Miami regional, where do we go for Supers....or is it possible for us to back into a super host site?

Standford. if stanford loses, TEXAS most likely host the super.

Paired with #8 national seed Stanford.

Don’t see Texas hosting Super, if we get that far.

So... setting up a potential Texas - A&M regional... They just cant let that shit go

Edited by Laxtonto

Miami, Maine, and Texas in the same regional gives off some real early to mid 80s Omaha vibes.

coral gables vs. louisiana on friday.

The Cajuns went 5-0 against TxSt this season, so I have nothing good to say about them.  Their 2nd-best pitcher ended up putting up better ERA/W-L than the guy who has the best arm.  Roccaforte is their stud hitter.

Maine needs to bring back John Winkin for the weekend.  Most likely deader than Ron Fraser, but oh well.

Baylor, Rice, and Houston have gone to shit.  
UT, Tech, aggy aren't as good as they used to be.  Shit, even the SWAC teams who would sometime pull a regional upset are horrible.

Aggies just had their best CWS run. We aren’t our best but we’re up there. DBU. Tech, TCU are talented but not peak CWS. But that really isn’t their history. SHSU is solid.

Now BU, Rice are pitiful. Houston is down.

I do think there are more quality players spread thru the country.

Southern Miss will win that regional.

Which ever OkSt poster on here that always talks about Oral Roberts being a thorn in their side will really love that draw.

#11 seems about right for my Pokes.  Sure ORU will knock us out since they’re our kryptonite.

OU as a three at Virginia 

They destroyed UVA in  a regional in Charlottesville a few years back.

No.  Are those three teams the only other possibilities?

And then wiped the floor with VT in their home super. They've done well in that state.

OU got a pretty favorable draw for being one of the last teams in the tournament. ECU isn’t close to the level they were last year.

When is the last time F$U didn't make the tournament?

 

Looks like Louisiana is the lowest-RPI at-large bid.

On I-pad now instead phone and see bracket.  Agree, Texas should host if Standard should lose but don’t see that happening.

It has been time to dump the RPI for the last 20 years.

Is there a printable bracket out there anywhere?

This is a pretty good one.  Wait about 8-10 hours and the gametimes/broadcast info will be on it:

 

https://www.ncaa.com/brackets/baseball/d1/2023

I like it better than the ESPN version.  

Looks like they made an extra effort to give the better #2 seeds a more favorable #1 draw as opposed to geography.  Not with everybody obviously but some glaring examples.  

That Indiana State regional is a fucking joke.  They shouldn't be hosting.  Iowa should not be a preferred #2. 

Top 3 overall seeds got it made in the shade in terms of draw.  How it should be I suppose.  

Weird that we played 3 of the 4 Stanford regional teams in the regular season.  How prescient.

… which means that the chance of FSU winning the College World Series is exactly the same as every other year they did make the regional.

Anyone want to rank the brackets based on the likelihood of an upset? Looking at the brackets to me the regionals I see that could be upsets are :

Indiana St, Kentucky, Miami, Bama and maybe Arky

ISU, Bama, Auburn, Clemson, Okie State, Arky in order

We all want to see a Ball St / Oral Roberts matchup sometime down the line, right?

Really? It's not like hosts never lose in the Regionals. Is this Stanford team particularly invincible or something?

Being in the SEC is going to be great. We only need to finish 8th in the conference to host a regional.

There is a pretty danged good craft beer place about 75 yards from the stadium in Coral Gables. Nice area around there. From Coral Gables over to Coconut Grove is my favorite part of Miami.

How do you see Texas hosting over Stanford if they should both win their regionals?  Or am I missing something?

I thought UTSA was top 20 a couple weeks ago. They must have lost out to miss the tournament 

D1B got attracted by their shiny record.  Then they got swept at home by DBU and went 0-2 in CUSA tournament and finished #75 RPI, 1-3 vs Q1.
