I’m not unhappy about not having to worry about encountering Tennessee in Omaha

I was thinking the same thing

Are we actually the highest seed in Omaha? Unbelievable.

So far, yes. (3) Oregon state and (2) Stanford both play today so they could be higher, but we'll the highest seed our side of the bracket.

Call your shot. How do we finish?
Top 8 = 2nQ
Top 6 = 1-2
Final 4 = 2 to 3 wins
Finals
Champs

Eric Hyman convinced me of the wisdom of managing expectations, so I'll say Top 6 (1-2)

We have 2 wins all-time and last won a game in 1993. You sound kind of optimistic.

You can count me in for an optimistic hope for 1-2
Posted on 6/14/22 at 1:30 pm to Farmer1906
My heart wants to say 2 wins but my head says 1
So give me 2, I’ll be the overly optimistic one

Despite being the 2nd highest seed in the CWS, we're not gettng any love from the sportsbooks. Caesar's has us with the lowest odds and Texas with the highest. If I was a betting man, I'd be tempted to take a flyer on the Ags (despite our CWS history).
It is testament to SEC baseball that 4 of the 8 teams are from the conference ... 6 if you project ahead to ou/tu being in the conference.
Texas: +350
Stanford: +450
Notre Dame: +500
Arkansas: +650
Auburn: +750
Oklahoma: +800
Ole Miss: +850
Texas A&M: +900

I'll say 2. I think our chances to win 1 of game 1 or 2. And then I like our chances vs teams #3.

Going to be interesting to see how our patience at the plate plays out vs the OU starter on Friday. He's averaging 6IP/6K/1BB per start, so if he's on his A game, we'll see a lot fewer free baserunners than last weekend vs Louisville. And they have a dynamite closer as well that can easily go 2 innings, maybe 3, so under normal circumstances, there's going to be a very small window to beat up any middle relievers they throw.
Regarding the championship odds, this team has continually found ways to surprise and exceed all expectations, so the oddsmakers putting us as the biggest underdog plays perfectly into what this team has been about all season.

Agreed! That's why I said "if I was a betting man." I was surprised Vegas had us with the longest odds, but this is nothing new. This team has faced long odds since pre-season conference predictions. We've clawed our way to the CWS and hopefully, this will just be additional motivation to "go win it all"

Getting ready for the game - looks to be hot in Omaha today so lots of sun block! Heading to lunch and then the park, so see you on the other side
