They really need to revise how teams get hosting priority. Should be resume based instead of corrupt back room deals. Auburn’s AD did the same thing earlier

USM deserved it just as much as Tennessee, maybe moreso considering USM had a shot at hosting a regional, Tennessee didn't.

Y’all are just poorer than a south Mississippi Conference USA school. That’s okay though, just accept it.

You don't know how it was chosen. Tenn thinks they deserved it, and SMiss thinks they deserved it. Both teams can come up with a myriad of reasons why.

I get that you don't like their decision, but if you think it's back-room deals, are you saying that SMiss had more financial backing than Tennessee? A bit embarrassing

It’s sealed bids. Sounds like Tenn couldn’t afford it

If you're talking about having transparent guidelines for the initial #1 thru #16 seeds and regional host then I would agree. However, when two #2 seeds (or two #3 ot two #4 seeds for that matter) from regional sites that are matched together for a Super Regional both win their regionals you have to make a judgement on who hosts the Super on a case by case basis.

It can go either way when a #2 seed matches up with another #2 seed in a Super. I like Tennessee to get by Southern Miss regardless of where it's played but USM is more than justified in getting the nod to host given they were likely a slight bit closer to hosting last weekend than Tennessee.

If anyone has a beef with the committee it's Alabama. Right now we should be either hosting Tennessee, Oregon, or TCU in a Super Regional or playing LSU in the Baton Rouge Super Rdgional. As an Alabama fan I would gladly trade spots with Tennessee right now. We got a brutal draw from the committee.

Your corrupt offer wasn’t as good as their corrupt offer? Try harder
