This is so ridiculous. Winner has to play 2 tomorrow to win the tourney

 

Just came here to post this. That’s insane. Not sure how they don’t change the format after the first day of rain.

B10 is a joke at everything.

 

I think the last game last night ran to 1 or 2 AM as well. This whole tourney has been a cluster fuck after the weather on the first day.

 

Aaaaaaand now they're in a weather delay due to lightning at 2 in the fucking morning.

 

And now Rutgers is just running up the score.

 

Yea I wouldn't have even restarted the game after the weather, no need. Our shit tier pitching finally showed up

 

Nice run. Nice to even be in the tourney.

 

I don't think that's right

 

Haha.

 

Literally hadn’t heard of this kid before now

 

No fuckin way.....is that Gar's kid?

 

Indeed it is....
...that makes me sad

 

Yes.

 

18 straight

 

Tennessee’s defense is very underrated, really slick in the infield

 

Welp

Fascinating display of Tennessee fans in Hoover would love their thoughts on personal responsibility and opioids

 

There is nothing redeemable about the state of Tennessee. To be fair, there is nothing redeemable about the state of Arkansas either.

 

OZ just texted this to me. Can Iowa force them to replay the game in a situation like this?

 

Tennessee bringing in a guy who throws 100+ at this point isn’t fair

 

The Vols crowd is silent after learning their favorite politicians fund opioids!!!!
Or after BT Riopelle hit a homer!!!!!!

 

Tony V forced to bring in relievers like someone stole the gabagool.

 

I’m all for having fun while playing but goddamn for having a coach that freaks out if any other team celebrates, this Tennessee team is completely ridiculous with it

 

Imagine if some other team walks off on them in regionals/supers and has the audacity to pretend like they should celebrate.

 

Keep going, I’m almost there

 

Everyone will be happy!!!!!

Vols are incredibly stacked and have lived up to billing, helluva run so far and we’ll see in the tourney.

 

Oklahoma Texas on ESPNU

 

this is what could unite this thread

 

Pretty surprised Auburn is hosting after the last two shitshow weekends.

 

I figured we still had a solid chance if they took the entire body of work, but I was worried that the strong finish of several teams would skew the committee’s view and make them lean more on recent events. They did reward some recent strong play, but they also rewarded us for a solid entire season.

 

Don't think I ain't already played this scenario out once or twenty times

 

Always ends in Tennessee walking the dog and winning the whole damn thing

 

ND got screwed.

I would take Hattiesburg or Statesboro over an SEC site, but we're probably looking at a #3 anyway.

 

Looking at the AQ schools from one-bid leagues, there are six teams from New York that won their conference tournament:

Binghamton (214 RPI)
Hofstra (117)
Columbia (54)
Canisius (169)
Long Island (135)
Army (154)

Columbia likely is a 3 seed because of their RPI and the number of much higher RPI teams behind them. But with that bunched group of teams, it’s going to be interesting to see where the committee sends them all. In the past, they’ve tried to keep 4 seeds local, but the closest host to NY is Maryland or Virginia Tech. So some of those teams will be traveling.

 

It’s either to y’all or Texas. Don’t see them sending them anywhere else.

 

a super at UF? thats dumb as fuck

 

not a fan of Gonzaga as our 2 seed. They have been tough all year.

 

they wouldn’t get the super if all top seeds win

 

Florida would only host a super if Oregon State doesn’t win their regional.

 

Ole Jawja Southern gets to host. We never can make it out of a regional though.

 

All of you enjoy your postseason play. I’ll be cheering you on.

 

Would be quite interesting for UNC to wake up in the second half of the year and suddenly find themselves as a top 8 seed

 

OH SHIT

 

gonna be tough to do that
