So an SEC team will make the championship series at the WCWS.

Who will it be?

Tough bracket for the SEC side.

I will obviously go with Florida in this, but Tennessee did beat us in the SEC tournament and LSU won the series versus us. I guess we will see what happens.

They do some flip thing, so an SEC team isn't a lock to be in the championship

So it's guaranteed that the SEC will have a 50% chance of winning another National Title in Softball

The only flip thing is the game 6 loser coming over. I don't see that team winning.

The winners don't flip...the losers of the second round game does... but yeah you're right it doesn't guarantee an Sec team in the final since a non sec team can be flipped over to the other side and that non sec team can win out from the losers bracket.

I keep forgetting about this. From a probability standpoint, still more possible th a not though, especially with Alabama on the other side of the bracket.

Florida is 1-3 versus the current bracket they are in and 7-1 versus the other. We got screwed.

Your pitchers are very, very good whereas our batters are homerun prone (I think that gives us a good chance in tourney play... any time you have homerun heavy team you can make up for other errors and deficiencies and do it quickly). That said, one of our pitchers is struggling with a hip injury and although we had a great showing against FSU our batters left a lot of hits on the table, imo.

Really, the Lady Vols are playing with house money as far as most of us are concerned. They are incredibly YOUNG and that's been 99 percent of their mistakes/inconsistencies through the season. No one - not even their coach - expected the team to make it this far so we are pretty thrilled about where we're at and should be able to play loose.

Should be a good game but it will be tough.

I'm hoping Florida plays up the revenge card against Tennessee and LSU (if they face them).

I just want to get a crack at Florida. The regular season championship came down to the two of us and we never faced one another the whole season...and still haven't. The gators won even though they cancelled a regular season SEC game for a 18-5 record and we still had to play ours finishing with an 18-6 record. They won the title as a result. Then, we win the Tournament Championship. It's all good though. It would just have been nice if the top two teams in the conference actually went head to head at least once during the season. Good luck to everyone!

Why couldn't the NCAA break up the SEC teams better than 4 on one bracket, very unfair to the SEC !!!!

I digress, sorry, forgot it's the NCAA
