What is the better post season scenario?

As of now, we're outside the top 16 in both RPI and DSR. If we host, we've likely taken 2 of 3 from UK and get the benefit of the doubt because of the crowd we guarantee.
That being said, there's a good chance we're a 15 or 16 seed, lining us up for a super regional against UCLA or GA Tech. Maybe we slip into a 13 or 14 which might line us up with a potential super regional against UNC or UGA, again, not ideal (but better than the first two options IMO).
However, if we end up a 2 seed somewhere, there's a good chance we could end up at Coastal or KU and potentially teamed up for supers with a 6 or 8 seed?
Either way, the road's gonna be tough with our lack of pitching depth.

16 seed all day long. It’ll be harder for this team to win a regional than a super. I’d rather have the buam magic for a regional.
With Dietz on the mound we match up well with anyone. Then we have enough pitching left to keep one more game close enough for the bats to win.
I don’t see us coming out of a losers bracket at any point.

16 seed pairs us with 1 UCLA, not a bad draw at all. They've played 4 ranked teams all year and only 2 that were weekend series in conf play over the last 2 months. They didn't look great vs Oregon this past weekend coming back on Sunday from 6-1 down in the 6th after losing Saturday 9-6.
They'd probably shell our pitching enough in a game 3 that it wouldn't matter if we scored 10 or so like yesterday.

yeah... hope we can host a regional but honestly I'm not sold on this team being able to take 2-3 on the road in a super with how shaky our pitching has been.
Hope I'm wrong.....
