Division I Baseball bracket released


Recommended Posts

So now you say March games don't count. Come on and they finished 7-3 in the last 10 games. Doesn't matter who they played. They started out like 18-1 all though those were mostly home games. It's funny how many pick conference tourney, but nobody has said why RPI wasn't the major factor like how it's been for years. Watch next year, you won't be seeing big non-conference matchups. Everybody will be padding records. BTW, LSU is real young, they'll bounce back next year.

Thanks Eagle. My deals is I don't think LSU deserved post season, but when you look at some of the teams that got in then you have to take LSU. They could of put LSU in Virginia's bracket as the #4 seed or something. Here's the reason why they didn't picket LSU, because every top seed in AMERICA is scared to play the Bayou Bengals this time of the year period :D ;D

Actually just exhausted on how the "power conferences" for so so many years got "in" to the NCAA's and mid majors got pushed out.... End of season tournaments hurt mid-majors overall, they dont create "money" for their conference... yet the power conferences make income, quality media coverage and allows a lower seed to earn a "bid"... But when New Mexico at 20-39 gets in their conference tournament, then win it, that takes a spot from another deserving program, as did Alcorn State.

Now however I do feel mid majors DO NOT get respect from media and average fans on how good these clubs play the game. With BBCore now in the game and locker rooms down sized to 35players max, these mid majors are going to rattle some teams in the regionals.

The 3 regionals which appear as a "o watch out" regional is UCLA in LA, TCU in Ft Worth, and the Houston Regional with Rice... not sure the number 1's get out alive in those 3. UCLA has no offense with an amzing pitching staff. TCU is going to have fits with Oral Roberts and DBU in there, and Rice makes for a curious team this season. But heck, its why they play the games, so we shall see...

NCAA Post season is as interesting as the Final Four in basketball. Its unfortunate these Texas programs(7made the tourney) will beat one another up, but it is what it is....

1 or 2 of these mid majors, IF they get quality starts from their starting pitchers, early in regional play, going 8innings deep, making it where they dont 'exhaust' their bullpens, then it wont suprise me if they move on to a Super Regional... but then most mid majors, if not all, wil be on the road for the best 2 of 3 which Im not sure they can sustain winning a super regional...

This proves right here that velocity is overated!!!!!!!!!!

DBU's Jared Stafford (8.1 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K) carved up the Horned Frogs with an 81-83 fastball and the ability to throw three secondary pitches in any count, according to DBU pitching coach Bob Keller

A few interesting decisions made within the past hour...

Rice and Cal tied at 3.. Rice has bases loaded, 1 out.. Cal gets a strike out on the 9hole a and weak grounder from their leadoff to 2nd base which ends inning, no runs...
THEN, Rice calls for a 30minute lightning delay... Cal's big Righty has went 2 2/3rds shutout ball but you can bet now he wont be coming back out in the 8th after sitting more then 30minutes from the "delay".
And then Rice will have their 2,3,4 coming to the plate when play resumes.

TCU coaching move was interesting in bottom of the 6th.. Down 4-3, bases loaded, They go to the pen for a lefty with a 9 ERA to face Elders(Oral Roberts top power guy - .325 hitter with 11homeruns).. 2 pitches into the count, GRANDSLAM to RF, Puts ORU up 8-3... a 9ERA guy to face ORU's top hitter with bases loaded... They leave the freshman Crichton sitting in the pen with 9decisions and a 1.9ERA and run out that lefty to get Elders... interesting...

Texas State goes to their game 1 starter in relief in the 9th with runners on 1st and 2nd 1 out verse Texas.. he then walks the bases loaded, falls behind 2-1 and gives up a dead middle of the plate FB to lose the game.

NCAA Regionals Baseball.... Decision making seperates the "quality from good"....

    • Are you really gonna talk about decorum from a President while supporting the guy who effectively has no such decorum? Just last night the former president (and would-be despot) was in Arizona talking with Tucker Carlson and fantasized about Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad… after calling her dumb, of course.     Trump didn’t just “defecate all over the office of the President”…. He is a piece of excrement.  
    • I personally hope PN-G gets 2nd gets to the 2nd round wins the flip against SOC and drag them them to Houston to play 
    • I like option number two, PNG and Nederland both win. Nederland i’ll be the district champion, number 1 seed or whatever you want to call it. Yes I know that if two or three teams tie with the same record, they will be called co-champions and everyone gets a trophy. One team however will go in as the first place team in district and will play the fourth place team in the bi-district round. If PNG and Nederland both win, Nederland will be #1. I-N-D-I-A-N-S! - Scalp ‘em Indians, Scalp ‘em!  😎
    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
