UC-Santa Barbara can only seat a thousand. On 8/1/2010 at 4:01 PM, winters in buffalo said: You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting.

Billy B Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Well, I'm obviously pretty excited. Illinois had its 27 game win streak snapped during the Big Ten Tournament, but it's great that we get to host a regional. And I have a friend that just started working in Nebraska, so I'm making the trip if we're able to make it to the CWS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAWeaver Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Haven't been following college baseball all this year. Despite that, I'm glad to see my Ohio Bobcats made it in.

TBGKon Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Glad to see my USF Bulls in the tourney for the first time since 2002 & in the first season with new skipper Mark Kingston. I really figure this was a rebuilding season, but if this is rebuilding the future is bright. On the flip side, I was hoping to avoid the Gainesville regional but Tallahassee and Coral Gables aren't cakewalks either.I know UCSB is hosting in Lake Elsinore, but will Dallas Baptist host in their home stadium? I think it only seats 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clintau24 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Knew it would happen, but wish Auburn didn't get the Tallahassee regional. Auburn's record there is not too great. We've really only got one good starting pitcher at the moment in Cole Lipscomb, so that's my biggest worry going into this regional. "I believe in Auburn and love it!"

Raysfan12 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Louisville just had the an amazing year with 25 wins in conference play (which is a new ACC record), #3 in the country, never lost a series in the regular season (regular season champs), and hosting another regional (3 straight). All this from a program in their first year in the conference and against teams like Miami, Florida State, and NC State. I expect the Cards to go Omaha again for the 3rd straight year.

It also helps to put in a bid far above the minimum of $50,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Region #1 - Los Angeles vs. Lake Elsinore Lake Elsinore: UC Santa Barbara, Southern California, Virginia, San Diego State So 164 miles away from its campus, UCSB is "hosting" schools 74/70 miles away from the stadium in USC/SDSU.
