Really working the idea of easier bracket for UL

Kind of refreshing not to have any pressure. 2 and Q is what I expect.

I also expect 2 & Q, one of us will be wrong

Yep. Bats aren't consistent enough.

Is that why the UL side of the bracket has a higher chance of winning it all?

Let's both be wrong and meet in the winners bracket.

Is this another of those Yale things?
Their formula really hates Florida. Didn't they have Wake Forest as the favorite in the Super?

I thought Florida would be higher

I think these odds just show that 1 side of the bracket is far stronger.
OSU and LSU are head and shoulders above everybody else, imo.
Did they re-seed teams when they got to Omaha in the past?

I wouldn't say that these odds show the Louisville/TCU/UF/A&M side of the bracket to be FAR stronger - just moderately stronger.
According to these numbers, that side of the bracket has 57.4% chance of winning.

Assumed that prorata OSU and LSU final win odds were primarily lower due to lower chance of clearing through to final
I was wrong it looks like UL is the favorite outright

How the hell does A&M have higher odds than Florida or CSF?
We haven't won a CWS game in 25 years, and have only won 2 CWS games all time. Florida has been to the CWS a lot recently and has a damn good team.
I'd love for my Aggies to buck this trend, but the reality is that we will probably go 0-2.
I'm just saying, these odds are bullshite.

If UL, or FSU, wins that would have the ACC as defending champions in football, basketball and baseball. Ugh.

Yes I did not get A&M higher than UF at all. If UFs pitchers show up, they could win the whole thing. TD Ameritrade plays into their hands. Everybody sure loves Louisville. Makes me think they might go 2 and Q.

I don't know man. I can't take many more games where we struggle to score. We've put it on the defense way too much this year much like our football and basketball teams. 
I would not be shocked at 2 and out.

Because past performances of players & coaches no longer on the team have zero relevance into the odds of winning this year.
Posted on 6/15/17 at 11:23 am to The Balinese Club
You could have just gone the route of us having the lowest RPI in the field. Bringing up the past is quite irrelevant for this year.
The odds are we probably would go 0-2 in simulation type analytics. We just need baseball to baseball it up!

Kind of surprised where we fell in here. Listening to Sirius you'd think that we are the Sisters of the Poor this year. Yes, our '15 and '16 teams were much better and yes we barely made the tourney this year because we sucked for the last 3 weeks of the season.
I don't know what to expect with this team, they've won thus far in the post season, and that's more than all save 7 other teams can say.
Baseball is based upon failure, so here's to hoping that we fail less than the other teams.
