What happens if both hosts in a regional pair lose?

Just curious what happens in this situation. I'm guessing that one of the 1 seeds gets to host the super. How does that work and had it ever happened? Seems like it would have at some point.

Both teams bid for the right to host
“If both advancing teams are not national seeds, they will compete for the right to host the Super Regional, with the NCAA Baseball Committee reviewing their proposals based on site selection criteria like facility quality and revenue potential.”

Higher regional seed to advance hosts. If they're the same seed (or the higher regional seed to advance has horrible facilities) the committee decides based on facilities.

I seem to remember it happening a few years ago that Auburn and the other regional host (Clemson or FSU) ended up losing. I think the match-up for that super ended up being Georgia Tech and South Alabama or something like that and they still played at Auburn.

Didn’t it just happen with Tennessee and USM. Or am I thinking of some other teams.

If both teams that advance to the Super Regional from a given Regional are National Seeds, the higher-seeded National Seed will host the Super Regional series. This means the team that was seeded higher overall in the national seeding process will host the best-of-three game series
If both teams are equally seeded (i.e., both are, say, a #1 seed in their regionals, but have different overall national seeds), the hosting team will be determined based on factors like the quality and availability of their facilities, as well as revenue potential

No. 12 Oregon goes 0-2 and is eliminated from their home regional
That could potentially be *very* significant for Oklahoma should they find a way to advance to the Super Regionals
The door to postseason baseball in Norman has been opened. Gotta win tonight and then only win 1 of 2 games. Then Super Regional goes to Norman.
Lots of ifs, but its an opportunity not seen too often

It happened two years ago. Southern Miss and Tennessee both advanced as 2 seeds. Both teams bid. Southern Miss won. Tennessee fans got upset and complained that Hattiesburg isn't a real city because there's no Applebees. Tennessee won the series 2-1.

LSU fans hold grudges for my opinions

Just looked it up. Happened in 2023. Auburn and Clemson lost. That let either Tennessee or USM host. I think Tennessee declined because they were doing a renovation on their stadium. USM hosted
