I thought Arky got hosed not hosting but now I can see why. Not to mention your RPI is about 30 I think and that's after a good bump in the SEC tourney. Regardless I expect Arky to make it to the CWS. IMO it would be a disappointment if y'all didn't. Arky's draw is very manageable IMO given their skills.

Didn't they start off pretty bad too, during OOC play?

Wait... I thought they bragged all season about their SoS?

And we provided facts all season that their SOS was the worst in the conference, which some chose to ignore

at least we left our own state for OOC amirite?

Stanek makes them tough for a three game series, period. That's why they're a scary club.

Did Arkansas play high school teams or something? They started the season with some solid OOC opponents.

I knew the RPI wasn't good but didn't realize OOC SOS was so bad. Hurts not hosting but I still think they make Omaha if defense stays solid.

pretty simple really: the teams we played sucked with their own schedules, we can't help we are everyone's World Series and getting so hyped up to play us leads to a letdown the rest of the season.

Western Ill - Bad
UNO - Horrid
Evansville - OK
AZ St - Good
Gonzaga - Not bad
Pacific - Bad
SDSU - OK
SWAC schools - Horrid
New Mexico - Good
Nebraska - OK
Oklahoma - Good
Missouri St - Not bad
It's really not that terrible of a schedule. Western Ill and Evansville are what really kill it though, RPI wise. And 4 SWAC games. Mix in some Oral Roberts, UCA, and OK St to replace some of those SWAC games, and yall might be hosting. Take out WIU and put in just about anyone else, and it's almost definite that you're hosting.
ETA: 6 games vs UNO and SWAC schools is probably what really killed it. Not Evansville.
