    There are so many good matchups. Arkansas has a tough road.

    #3 bracket plays #6 bracket first in WCWS in the first game. So, it’s the Gainesville Regional bracket against the Austin Regional bracket.

    I don't care who they would play in OKC. I just want them to get there. They have to win their regional and then beat probably Duke at home in a Super. Nothing is given with their defensive problems and pitching struggles. Hope for the best, though.

    Agree totally and strangely we have as much a shot to win the whole thing as anyone.
    Strange season with lack of a dominant team.

    It’s where most of the first weekend games usually are. A lot of the second weekend games too. Sometimes they’re on sec+ too if an sec team is playing.

    15 of 16 seeds, Alabama in and Virginia Tech out. USCe gets to prove they deserved the 8 seed over UCLA. Overall, the conference tourneys impact was minimal for the top 16 seeds, regular season more impactful.

    You might get lucky. Sometimes they’re on both platforms.

    I just generally dislike texas lol. Given their inconsistencies lately im not shocked if they don't make it either. There could be many upsets this year. With our luck im not ruling our Georgia coming to Gainesville and getting us with their change ups lol.

    Really though im putting confidence in our team and all the experience and hunger from the run last year.

    And so hoping that Bama takes out OU in Norman... or better yet let Liberty get them in Regional

    Let’s take one game at a time and if we do that, I believe we’ll get to the WCWS. We have the horses to do this. I’m believing the Gators can pull it off.

    Yes, KSP. Tune in to Hull Road.

    Seriously, can someone hook-up MCB51 and share an ESPN+ login? For all the PBP she does during the season, she deserves it!! :)

    I honestly think the girls were surprised. I think they were thinking a #6 seed or #7 seed.

    To be on ESPN+ is very strange for a game at KSP. I don't think it has ever happened before. Should be SEC+. I looked at the Friday ESPN schedule and all of the early games appear on ESPN+ but the later games, to include 4:30 don't show. Where did you find this? Granted, it could be a hook by ESPN to force people to purchase ESPN+ who have never had to do that before since all previous games are either on SEC, SEC+ or a main ESPN channel. In any event, it only costs something like $10 or $11 for a month's access. Suck it up. You would pay far, far, more to attend the game.
