First time ever to get 4 teams as NS and all 7 are hosting a Regional. Who do you think has the toughest road to Omaha and how many make it? Granted the 4 NS should have it easier but that doesn't mean they make it. Here's my choices from hardest to easiest.
Vandy - Play the Cards in the Super and they are 33-1 at home!
Ole Miss- Play the Canes in the Suoer. Canes home 30-6 & OM Road 11-9
SC- Play their Rival in the Super- Coin flip on this one.
MSU- Home winning % is same as Road %. Play UL Lafayette in super. coin flip
LSU- Play NC State in Super who is 1 of 2 host teams that has losing road record
A&M- Plays Texas Tech in Super who is in the BIG 12---Enough Said.
Florida- Plays Noles in Super who is the other team with a losing road record.
Predicted teams in Omaha
Florida- I don't see Fl losing a game in Regional or Super
A&M- Ditto for the Aggies
LSU- Wolfpack has a couple of pitchers that could get 1 game in Super
SC- Knock down drag out in the Super but the Cocks pull it out.
I have all 7 teams making it to the Supers with State, OM & Vandy losing close ones.

A&M isn't matched with TTU.

Sorry TCU-----All the Big 12 Texas Schools look alike.

I can see LSU going 5-0 to get to Omaha, but I can also see them bowing out in the regional.
Despite the fantastic play over the last 3 weeks, this team has a lot of critical flaws. I don't think they played particularly well in Hoover outside of the MSU game.

LSU and A&M have probably the best matchups of the group.
MSU had a nice draw too
Vandy landed an awful draw but NCAA loves this matchup
Honestly, OM, SC, Florida have tough draws. I could easily see all 7 teams making or just two.

I would not discount Tulane or Southern Miss. Both had good games against their respective in state big boys albeit mid week games. La Tech has 1 awesome pitcher and can rake.
The State of Louidiana has several good teams this year. Many considered, until the recent run, LSU as the third or fourth best team in the state with ULL, TU, Siutheastern all better.
LSU will not play NC State. They will be playing Coastal Carolina who is very very good.

agree with all of this. I think USC beats clemson though. I have A&M, LSU, UF, MSU, USC in omaha. Good luck to your dores, they are going to need it.

That's racist!
A&M's is fairly favorable. Minny is terrible. Wake is solid. TCU is a good club, but resume wise were one of the weakest hosts. I highly doubt TTU makes it to Omaha even with their cake regional. But if they do, they have to be the weakest NS. No major compaints except I'm tired of playing TCU & the fan bases coming to Olsen for the regional are boring. ULala coming several years back traveled well & made it more interesting.

I'm happy LSU got the 4th seed. I'm really happy (and surpised) that with 7 SEC regional hosts, nobody got paired up together.
NCAA taking a little gamble here; obviously any team can lose, but I'd have sworn they'd have tried to minimize the SEC presence somewhat (just to inspire national following). It's possible all 7 could go to Omaha!

You think ULL beats us in Stark?

florida is the least likely to lose before omaha. partly because of their easy draw (#1 overall seed), but mainly because they're just really good.
i do think uconn could beat them in the winner's bracket game on saturday. but no way the huskies have enough pitching compared to florida to beat them twice.
lsu's draw is also stupid easy.

1) Ole Miss. You almost have to wonder if the committee was pre-punishing them for violations in other sports.

If we win our Regional, we will prevail against ULL, if we face them. It will be tough to get through our Regional. CS Fullerton has only been the the CWS 17 freaking times. SEMO has a killer ace that we will see Friday. Yeah, if we win, ULL won't scare me none.

LaTech is going to cause problems in the MSU regional. CSF will be tough as well.
I don't see MSU advancing...
