    5 days is enough rest, but 6 is the norm. i think he does same thing regardless of score. but just guessing obv.
    What does 1 win do for them? If winning whole thing is goal, would think Eyanson today would of been the play.

    i forget who the 4 seed was, but CJJ started Skenes vs them,,FWTW. lol

    I dont think theres any chance LSU doesnt get T8. but.. if lose today will finish 11/12 rpi, & possibly below 3 acc teams & Vols.. j/s

    Also played all of the bottom 3 in sec, going 6-3

    Ole Miss up to #10 rpi. #11 UClA, then LSU, FSU, Vols(those 3 seperated by 3 total pts.)

    Oregon also lost earlier today, down to 18 rpi. FSU or Clemson could take their T8 spot if win accT

    Would you agree we are not hosting? Looking like #2 and Coastal or G. Tech for us.

    Definitely a 2 seed. Where to is just guesswork. If go by true seeding, which I do more than committee will,lol) I have UF around #20, which puts them at the #11-13 seed. So I actually have them at #12 Noles as of now. I have Coastal at #9(Miss St as the 2,, the last sec 2 seed)

    I dont have GT hosting(very well may bc of acc title) my 14-16 is SMiss, Vols, UCLA. Bama at SMiss.. I had UF here to begin with based on 'seeding(first sec 2 seed) but changed for geography..;)

    Clemson is another possibility for UF.. I have them at 10 now,, but they could take Oregons(or someones) T8 spot w/ a win today. Shouldnt go there if a T8 IMO

    Updated media projections

    Field of 64 Projections: Stolen bids, new host headline NCAA Tournament entering Championship Sunday - On3

    ^ they dropped Oregon all the way to 14 off 1 loss.. wow.

    2025 NCAA Baseball Tournament Bracket: Projected Field Of 64 (May 25)

    2025 D1Baseball Field Of 64 Projections: May 25 • D1Baseball

    they all dinged the Ducks.. If 1 loss causes that much drop,maybe shouldnt of been T8 to start with??
    D1 guys have said for a month...'no way can we put Oregon St ahead of Oregon due to the 4 straght losses'. Ducks lose 1 game now 4 spots below Beavs..lolol

    Cal Poly (bubble) will play UC-Irvine (bubble host) in maybe the last game of the conference tournaments.

    Miami has an RPI of 40 and H2H series loses against bubble teams Connecticut, Notre Dame, and Virginia. I don't think they're completely safe any more.

    I agree BUT SEC crew just said it’s all about how you play at the end of the year and that’s what the committee looks at. If that were the case, we would definitely be hosting.

    Ole Miss winning has to help us.

    We were the hottest team in the country to finish the season and not enough to host regional and all that considering we were playing in the best conference in the country

    USm just had 17 gm win streak snapped & Northeastern currently on 26 game heater I think. but I get your point ..lol

    I think metrics is still deciding factor overall, and also 'fairness'.. shouldnt be but is IMo.. sec already looking at record 8 host,, do they go 9 w/out real good reason.. no idea

    I think Cal Poly safe, 30 rpi, Uva the is strange one, 62 rpi but 5 over in acc.

    Miami sneaks in , but not UND /Uva is my guess.

    I think our schedule was a tad bit different. I believe we closed 14-4. That’s crazy good.

    With a straight face those are hottest 2 teams in country. FAMU had a streak going too lol., but very aware of schedule diffrence.. Northeastern didnt even put in host bid, or would be in the host conversation

    One problem with saying that the Gators deserve a host spot with how well they played lately is that Shelton and Heyman were in the line-up. And now they are not.

    Sad.

    Still with Peterson and King we are dangerous even with kicking the ball around behind them.
