Wait and see how the SEC does in the Supers and at the CWS. That's the ultimate test. Also, when a league gets 13 bids, percentages favor some of them dropping out.

Got it. Everyone likes things the way they are.

In the SEC baseball tournament, for instance, the Top 4 seeds get a bye to reward season-long play. Lower seeds have to play their way in. That was my thought.

Byes For Top Eight National Seeds?

Posted by ht1950 on 6/1/25 at 10:17 am
What if the top 8 host sites get a bye to the Supers? What if the other 9-16 play regionals to see who advances to play in the Supers? Any merit?

Has anyone else noticed that all these 'big moves' with 'big coaches' in football, basketball and baseball at A & M don't seem to work out?

Wondering what Penn State thinks about that...

re: SEC Teams in the RPI Top 10

Re: Ole Miss. The current resume is: #5 SOS, #10 RPI, 19 Quad 1 wins, the best in the country. Those metrics reflect an entire season. It would not surprise me if OM gets a Top 8 seed, but they'll host a regional, of course.

I think the SEC deserves at least 5 Top 8 seeds. SEC haters don't like the metrics, but they are what they are. Five straight natties from five different teams. This will be six straight when it's all said and done.

Who Wins Tomorrow? Vandy or Ole Miss?

Vandy lost two out of three to OM in Oxford. They've been the more consistent team all season, though.
After 25 years at Ole Miss, Bianco will determine when he steps down. He has earned that.
I think it was Peter Burns who said, "That's the quietest Hoover has been in
a stadium packed with LSU fans."

re: Texas A&M and LSU smh

I am a fan of neither LSU nor A & M (although I generally pull for SEC teams when they play OOC), but I have to say in observing A & M since they joined the SEC that they never seem to come through when they are highly ranked or have the highest expectations in any sport.

Both baseball and softball teams are an example this year. And it seems that Texas 8 and 4 is something their record in football does not disprove.

This year, Memphis is one of the worst teams in D1 baseball.
PPeterson: you are probably right about the host spots. Maybe half the sixteen spots will be SEC teams, up to four national seeds, I think.
The Top Ten in most polls is loaded with SEC teams. I can see the league getting up to six host spots for the tournament.
I say Arky takes it on the road. I think they are playing the best ball in the league right now.

Tennessee Versus Ole Miss Baseball Series

Posted by ht1950 on 4/9/25 at 12:50 pm
How do y'all see this one going down?

1) Tennessee sweeps.

2) Tennessee wins series, 2-1.

3) Tennessee loses series, 1-2.

4) Ole Miss sweeps.

5) Ole Miss wins series, 2-1.

6) Ole Miss loses series, 1-2.

----------------------------

I don't foresee a sweep either way. It's either going to be 2-1 Tenn. or 2-1 Ole Miss.
