1. Auburn- 2.5
2. Arkansas- 3.0
3. Texas- 3.0
4. Georgia- 4.0
5. LSU- 5.5
6. Vanderbilt- 6.5
7. Alabama- 8.5
8. N Carolina- 8.5
9. Florida- 10.5
10. Florida State- 10.5
11. Oregon St- 11.5
12. Coastal Carolina- 11.5
13. Northeastern- 14.5
14. Tennessee- 15.5
Taking the two most prevalent used metrics and averaging them together shows the Top 7 teams are from the SEC. I know there is no way the SEC will get 7 national seeds, but if things were fair, the winner of the Bama-UF series would get a national seed.

I'd love to hear the rationale on this?

Sorry. Typo. Should have said UF.
Whoever wins that series will have a way better resume than whoever the 2nd best non-SEC team is. The only reason the Bama-Florida series winner won’t get a national seed is because they are an SEC team, and the committee will only give 5 or 6 national seeds to the SEC. No chance of 7.

Put another way, the Top 6 teams are clear (though the order could be anything).
The race for the next two national seeds:
ELO:
6- North Carolina
8- Florida
9- Alabama
12- Florida State
RPI:
8- Alabama
9- Florida State
11- North Carolina
12- Florida
SOS:
4- Florida
18- Alabama
39- Florida State
40- N Carolina
Quad 1 Wins
14- Alabama
11- Florida State
9- Florida
7- North Carolina
You’re splitting hairs between those 4 resumes yet UNC and FSU are basically locks for national seeds at this point. Bama should host but has no shot at a national seed. And Florida is looking like they might not even get to host. That’s not right IMO.

This is my argument against Florida.. Bama has a chance though imo..
And I'm not saying Florida isn't good enough, but the resume and full body of work has to count for something..
This is just a metric that I've always put together..
Q1 + Q2 Wins vs All Losses
It isn't everything (see Arkansas) but the 18 L for Florida probably keep them out..

Why are Auburn fans posting on here about baseball all of a sudden? Did I miss something?

My personal opinion is if they don't like going on the road, don't play like dogshit in March.

Apparently, you missed this season.

Is this ELO like in chess?
I don't keep track of baseball, but the thread got my attention because of ELO. I was curious how this would be done for baseball since it would seem there would be bias towards teams at the end of the year.

Yes, and nobody knows how it’s calculated

Well for one, we’re having a great season and are hoping to get to Omaha for the 3rd time in 6 seasons.
Now can you explain to us why an Arkansas fan would ever post about football?

The current average score of the auburn ole miss game is 3-3.
Posted on 5/15/25 at 10:17 pm to AUTiger789
Zero chance the committee has 9 sec hosts

Well, they are 2-2 against Auburn over their last 4 games. They are allowed to post about playing Auburn. Those are just the rules.

No. Worst 5 seasons in Auburn football history, yet still a winning record against the Hogs during that span.

No program wants to see Florida travel to their stadium after Memorial Day.
