I’d also mention to keep an eye on UC Irvine. Santa Barbara has been getting all the pub and picks to host, but they’re quietly sitting at 23 RPI and 10-3 against Q1 & Q2 teams. Irvine also owns a series win over UCSB. They’ve got two weekends left. UCSB is 2 games up right now.



I think Irvine is the most likely #16 seed/host of the teams out west. They need to take all 4 from LMU and Fullerton and then CSUN is a top 100 RPI, so if they won out they'd be in pretty good shape. 45-10/44-11 with a Top 20 RPI, probably. 12 or 13 Q1/2 wins. That resume would probably top Oregon State's (assuming OSU wins the Zona series).

But somebody out west is going to host a regional.

100% and I’d venture maybe 2 hosts.

It’s simple if Oregon State wins the Pac 12. The Beavers plus a G5 team. If OSU loses to Arizona, I’m not sure Arizona has a host resume. Both UCSB and the Anteaters have a better resume than Arizona. Well, and Oregon State as well. But OSU will host on name recognition alone if champions of PAC 12, because their resume is pretty weak. 8-9 against Q1 & Q2 teams. Only one (1) Q1 win.
