Kentucky and Bama hosting is a joke. Kentucky hasn’t won a series in a month and half. Bama has won a few games since it’s fired its coach but had some really bad losses.
Tennessee
Overall Record: 38-18
SEC Record: 16-14
Road Record: 4-12
Neutral Record: 1-1
SOS: 20
NC SOS: 186
Last 10: 6-4
RPI: 16
Q1: 16-17
Alabama
Overall Record: 38-17
SEC Record: 16-14
Road Record: 9-9
Neutral Record: 2-0
SOS: 14
NC SOS: 123
Last 10: 8-2
RPI: 12
Q1: 16-14
Alabama has a better overall record, a better road record, a better neutral site record, a better record against Q1 teams, a higher rated NC SOS, a higher rated overall SOS, a higher RPI, and a better record their last 10 games. And they have an equal SEC record. I'd say them hosting as a 14-16 seed and Tennessee as a high 2 seed seems about right on the money given their respective resumes. DWI
I do agree Kentucky hosting is bullshite. They've lost 6 of their last 7 series and don't deserve to host.

bullshite.
We’ve had the toughest schedule in the country that happened to be heavy on the backend. They did enough work over the season to host.
We have as many Q1 wins as Arkansas and Vandy (20).

Seems the Tennessee fan is mad that his team didn't handle business for a good chunk of the season and wants to cherry pick.
It doesn't help their cause that their stadium is an insult to the game of baseball.

Not made at all. I don’t have an issue with teams hosting before Tennessee if they actually deserved it snd are better. Kentucky and Bama are not better than UT. Let’s take a look at all 3.
Team A- 38-18, (16-14 SEC), 14-6 last 20 games. 4-1 last 5 SEC series.
Team B- 38-17, (16-14 SEC), 14-6 last 20 games. 4-1 Last 5 SEC series
Team C- 36-17, (16-15 SEC), 9-11 last 20 games. 1-4 last 5 SEC series.
1 don’t look like the other but yet they deserve to be higher ranked than the other 2?

I am okay with this. I have more faith in our squad than Coastal. My baseball hot take is aside from maryland, Coastal is the biggest fraud this season

Now post SOS and RPI of said teams.

Your SOS comes from playing a bunch of road games early in the season, not the back end of your schedule. Your SOS has been #1 in the country since before SEC play began. The RPI formula is heavily weighted towards road games.
Road series at Elon (60), Indiana St (10), and Southern Illinois (121) is what did it.

Bama hosting makes more sense thank Kentucky. I am not thrilled Bama hosting but it’s not a big issue with me. Issue I have is Kentucky being a #9 seed ahead of Bama and UT. Bama and UT 4-1 last 5 SEC series and Kentucky is 1-4. Bama just got a couple really bad losses (Columbia and Mississippi State). That’s the issue I had with Bama. But I do agree Bama and UT both should be ahead of Kentucky.

And? I see nothing in that statement that should be a reason Kentucky shouldn't host.
Kentucky still has the resume to host in the teams that you're comparing them to.

Again, shocker that the Tennessee fan wants to forget what happened over the course of a whole season.

Well, it's only the complete opposite of your argument, so that for starters

Losing more than half of your SEC series and all of them coming in the last 7 weeks of the season is a great reason. That's not good

They have a comparable resume. I'd have them as a high 2 seed

Again, comes down to the structure of the schedule (heavier on the backend) and the strength of the schedule.
You're advocating the team with the toughest schedule in the country (not just SEC) to be punished for playing the toughest schedule in the country.

Losing more than half your SEC series in the totality of the season, regardless of when they were played, isn't a hosting resume IMO

No, I'm advocating that a team who shite the bed in SEC play didn't earn a host site
Kentucky isn't likely to get out of a regional regardless, so it doesn't really matter all that much

vs Q1 and Q2
Auburn 26-16-1 (.616)
Kentucky 26-17 (.605)
Alabama 21-14 (.600)
S Carolina 21-16 (.568)
Tennessee 19-17 (.528)
This stat is why TN will not host.

I disagree. Especially when you consider the toughness of the conference and Kentucky's overall schedule.

I mean I get it. You're were one of the loudest criers about Kentucky being "bush league" when we played your team so I'm not surprised you're hard up on this.

I hate not being in it obviously but it will be nice to sit back and relax with no stress after winning it all last year.
Silver linings. Bianco better have us back next year though

I guess this is where you have acknowledged you have no better argument. Well played
That said, I mentioned Kentucky was bush league one time in one thread, and you freaked out about it. Sorry to hurt so many feelings
Kentucky is so far down the list of programs I care about in this conference. that you think I have some axe to grind is hilarious

I always hate when they match SEC teams. I guess it is hard to avoid though with so many SEC teams in the tourney.
That would be a big FU to Arkansas. Alabama is a gritty team playing with an edge.
