In other words, Raleigh regional against Gainesville regional? Pairings for the super regionals are set prior and are now just like the basketball brackets where the national #1 seed host sight is paired against the #16 host sight, 2 vs 15, 3 vs 14 and so on. Before the regionals, teams are invited to submit bids to host the super regional if they were to advance. In this case there are base level restrictions for hosting, primarily that the host sight stadium have a minimum seating capacity. In last years' tournament Auburn's regional (Tallahassee) was paired with the Texas Tech regional from which Sam Houston State advanced. If we had won one of those last two games with FSU it was a certainty that there would have been an Auburn super regional since SHSU had not submitted to potentially be a super regional host sight.

I'm way too spoiled. I like it actually. I'm done by 3:00 -4:00 most days. And on Friday we stop seeing patients by noon, and I'm usually home by 2. I never get the worst of the traffic and I have my late afternoons free. Working at home would feel lonely for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderWhiskey 954 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I see that 4 national seeds lost, with fully half the regional hosts losing. Does that speak to the difficulty of seeding baseball, or is this just an anomaly? On the female side, all 16 regional hosts won through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer is usually our catch up time, but we are so slammed now, we may not even catch up until late July if then. I couldn't stay up to watch that one last night and since it wasn't Auburn it was an easy decision to go to bed.

around4ever 4,139 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 How did the selection committee know? There are six SEC teams in the 16 team Super Regionals. It is very odd that it worked out so the six SEC teams play each other. That means that the SEC is guaranteed to have 3 teams in Omaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the committee set it up this way for fear of an SEC heavy CWS. The only teams that were not setup for a potential pairing with another SEC team in the supers were UGA and LSU. We could have had 6 max which would have been interesting if they all could have got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU64 10,122 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 JMO. But it worked pretty well for the SEC since a couple teams like AU and MSU were not expected to be in the Super round anyway....and Georgia and OM were supposed to be there....but lost out.

Henderson is probably two wins away from getting that job. Cohen is posturing that he wants a coach with CWS coaching experience and will go with somebody else.
