I'm going with Alabama. They won't win the tourney but I've been saying for the past few weeks they've been getting better and better. Watch and see they don't pull a couple of upsets. Calling it right now.

The biggest surprise in Hoover is who isn't there this year. Arkansas relied too heavily on talent now playing in MLB and really cratered this season.

State is my surprise team of the year though, we all thought they would be decent and they turned out to be quite a bit better then that. They are the hottest team in the SEC right now.

So you're saying they're going to beat MSU on day two of the tournament?

I don't like the single elimination part, not how baseball should be played. It sets up for a lot of "surprises"... That are really not.

It should be an 8 team tournament.

You're saying MSU because you think we are going 0-2 which is always possible. Once again I am talking about the BIGGEST surprise team in the tourney.

Major surprises:

- Arky not there
- ole piss fading (actually no surprise)
- Bama there (good job)
- LSU being seeded 5th (mid season thought maybe 10th)

Enjoy..........

UGA...because, Surprise, we made it. Can't believe the record we had considering our SOS and Arkansas' sitting at home.

Alabama usually wins the first game in Hoover, then loses. Doubt it'll be different this year.

We shall see. I like what bama has been doing as of late and I know my Sec baseball. They won't be an easy out for anyone.

the way the bracket is set up, i really don't see a lot of potential surprises to be honest. The top 7 teams making it through wouldn't be a surprise to anyone, and with single elimination in the first round, really the only other teams i see possibly making any noise would be, like you said, Alabama and then Kentucky

Im a baseball purist. State has won 11 in a row. We have a national seed wrapped up. We need a 12-0 beatdown by Kentucky to bring us back down to earth before a run in the NCAA Tournament.
