HedleyLamarr Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I hope all the state teams do well (Mercer, Savannah State, North Avenue Trade School).......For some strange reason, I don't have much ill-will towards Georgia Tech's baseball program.

hailstateunis Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Tough regional for Mississippi State this year. Our 4 seed, Central Arkansas, beat us 2 out of 3 earlier in the year. We have improved a lot since then so we should be able to win. The 2 seed South Alabama almost hosted their own regional but fell just short, we did beat them this year, 6-4 about a month ago I think. I don't know much about Mercer, but they have a pretty good record.We are also matched up with Virginia for a super regional. Could've been worse, but that's a tough draw especially since they have an easy looking regional. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaRadniz29 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Jeez, Florida was thoroughly mediocre this season, at 29-28. I guess it was strength of conference that lifted them into the tourney?Yeah as a Gators fan, happy for them, but really didn't expect them to make it. Not only that theres talk that they may be able to advance out of the Bloomington Regional. If they do they may face their arch rival Florida State and the Gators haven't lost in Tallahassee in something like 5-6 years. Not sure this is the same Gators team, but really haven't followed college baseball too closely this season. Basically guessing in filling out my bracket.

I also heard that Michigan State, despite not making the Big Ten tourny, was the first team out (Sparty had a RPI rank of 36, If I remember correctly).Campbell blew their chance and there were a large amount of bid thieves this season compared to last.

Still MIGHTY Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Nice to see the Sun Devils back in the tourney after that postseason ban, and they're gonna play just up the road in Fullerton. I'm definitely getting some of my SoCal Sun Devil friends out there at some point this weekend.ASU hasn't had the best of luck at Fullerton in the Tournament, but they won the last time they were there in 2005. Not that that really matters.And if they make it to the Super Regionals, there's still a chance for them to play in SoCal. So that'd be fun to watch the entire Road to Omaha for my Devils here in SoCal. | ANAÂ | LAA | LARÂ | LAL | ASU | CSULB |Â USMNTÂ | USWNT |Â LAFCÂ | OCSC |Â MAN UTDÂ | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 And they're off! The first day of action has been quite exciting so far...-Kansas State's first game as a host sees them score 20 (!) in a 20-11 win over Wichita State (Remember, this is with the new bats, so this feels like old days again)-Plenty of 3 seeds are holding their own today. Troy, Towson, Liberty, William and Mary, Illinois and UC Santa Barbera have all won so far.-So far, one top seed has fallen and it's Virginia Tech losing to UConn... with Indiana in danger of getting stunned by Valpo.(Oh, and if you have time.. Every single game is on ESPN3, so go there) Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgthree Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Indiana held on. My alma mater (Bryant) is holding its own versus Arkansas. Hopefully, we can pull out the win. Bias aside, The K-State bracket is one of the top 3 best/hardest brackets in the regionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excited to say Bryant's biggest DI accomplishment in its short DI history (first year eligible for any DI tournaments) was beating Arkansas tonight.

Seadragon76 Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Here's a decent recap of the day so far:-Not much to report on the eliminated teams, except for three 3 seeds (Coastal Carolina, Florida and Mercer). Of those three, Mercer may have put up the biggest fight...-You like free baseball? There's been plenty of it today with Central Arkansas-Mercer going 11 (Mercer was down 5-1 and came back to force extras BTW), Oklahoma-UConn going 12 and San Francisco-South Dakota State going 13-The top seeds are holding form except for Virginia Tech.

hailstateunis Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 One seeds are dominating more than usual. Only two (Oregon and Virginia Tech) have lost games. Only Virginia Tech was beaten by a four seed, and no four seeds are undefeated. Looks like there won't be a Stony Brook or Fresno State this year in the CWS. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
