Texas got a brutal draw, they’ll be lucky to make it out of their regional.


Sarcasm, right? They have one of the easiest draws to the CWS. Pretty much the entire field of eight in the Austin, and Greeneville regionals is mid-majors

This is baseball, not football.

Since 1999, the mid-majors have sent 36 teams to the CWS, an average of 1.64/yr, and have won the CWS 6 times since then, most recently by Coastal Carolina in 2016.

Since 1999, 6 mid-majors have won more CWS games in one year than A&M has won in their entire history.

This isn’t football or basketball, Louisiana Tech and Dallas Baptist are both better than a majority of teams in 3/5 “major” conferences. Both would win the Big 10.

One of those mid-majors won the CWS in 2016 as a 4-seed in a regional.

ECU is currently competing to get to their 4th super regional in 6 complete seasons.

If DBU gets an out sooner than they did in the 7th inning of game 3 of their super last year, they're a team in Omaha in 2021.

Texas probably doesn't have the most brutal draw of the field, but if you've ever watched college baseball postseason before, you should know that anything is far from a cakewalk.

College baseball is not college football.
