Somewhere in the Carolinas most likely (where there are 5 host sites). Little shocked NC State is a host, so I'd love to see Auburn end up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 I’d love to end up at NCST and go make sure the committee knows what kind of mistake they made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJCrawford 1,568 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 If we were close to being hosts wouldn’t we have a better chance to go to one that was the number 15 or 16 in? (I’m totally ignorant on this so sorry if it’s a dumb question) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCTiger2011 1,282 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 It appears 40 wins/over .500 regular conference season is still the benchmark for SEC teams to host. Was nice to be on this bubble for once though instead of the other bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be happy if that is where AU ends up except for the fact to get revenge from last year. AU was one strike from winning the regional last year.

Typically they don't make teams travel too far for regionals. But they definitely don't rank em 1-64. Also, you arent supposed to have two teams from same conference in a region.

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 Man I’m disappointed but it’s great to be having this conversation again! I believe we’ll be talking about who we’ll start in game 1 of the Plainsman Park Regional this time next year! In the mean time, bring on the Pirates, Wolfpack, or heck, bring on the Noles! I’d love to beat those guys into the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost 2 of their last three series in a less difficult conference and went 0-2 in the tournament. NCAA put way too much emphasis on that 40 number.

jared52 4,354 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Well, if a team is going to be snubbed by the NCAA, it’s gonna be AU. Next question is whether the huge disappointment is met well in whatever region they are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
