Baseball doesn't make money at most schools. 4 schools(one per site) that would other wise be making money by hosting a home series are now losing money by incurring travel costs would probably make this a deal breaker in itself.

I like the format and the idea of getting Regional type experience. Down side would be as many as half of the 8 SEC teams eliminated the first weekend would be off for two consecutive weeks before real post season play begins. End of the day, I really wish they would do this. Hell just start the SEC schedule a week earlier and lose some non-conf games. With RPI, it wouldnt matter if everyone lost a cupcake series.
