Dallas Baptist 44-13, won their Conference Tournament, 9-2 vs. Q1 RPI. Indiana State 10 RPI. Both should host. But since they have smaller venues they get overlooked.
Dallas Baptist doesn’t get overlooked, they have been in the top 25 for like the last 10 years now. Baseball fans know they have a good program. Not good enough to host this year, who cares? They made it. Plus I’m pretty sure they have hosted in the last couple years, so I don’t wanna hear that they get overlooked, they don’t.
And Dallas Baptist has proven their worth during the tournament most times when they've made it! Been to two Super Regionals already and pushed Oral Roberts last year, nearly making it to a third!
Maybe, but last year they we're a national seed (Indiana St) against basically the same schedule so that being a theory is debatable! And remember they validated getting that national seed by advancing to the Super Regional
They had very little to say about the number 2 overall seed. They spent like ten times more time talking about the Fiesta Bowl--a football game--than they spent talking about the number 2 overall seed. They spent as much time talking about UC Santa Barbara's stadium renovations as they spent talking about the number 2 overall seed. Maybe it is a good thing. Maybe being under the radar means little pressure as you play to take your school to Omaha for the first time ever. Indiana State scares me. They hosted a regional last year and would have hosted a super-regional if they felt like they had the resources. They were tough to beat in a 3-game series in Lexington last season. They may be the biggest obstacle between the Cats and Omaha. But very little was said about the number 2 overall seed and SEC regular season co-champions. A lot of airtime was spent talking about teams with losing records in their conference, though.
I get where your coming from Tim but that's not a bad thing because sometimes when your over talked about or maligned by the media, it can end up being costly pressure wise! The less the pressure the more free you can play! Those of us that pay attention to college baseball know full well how good Kentucky has become, believe me! I personally have them going to Omaha in my bracket challenge
@@Chad13 who cares what their sos was, they didn’t win any of those games, so sos is irrelevant. they finished 1 game over .500 and well below .500 in conference. Youre going on 2 series wins over an almost 60 game season? Wow that’s a reach. I’ll get your wife to wipe my tears after she makes my sandwich.
Well that's only if Wake advances! Plus Tennessee is better than they we're a year ago and they proved last year in the Supers they can handle the Golden Eagles
I look at it personally from the opposite perspective! I don't think any of the teams in that Regional/Super like the idea very much of having to go through Knoxville! And I think Tony Vitello learned a valuable lesson two years ago about playing the game with respect and dignity sans the arrogance after the Notre Dame debacle! They're not only a better team now but they let their performance do the talking and take every opponent seriously
Southern Miss is a good squad along with Indiana. I’m all VOLS for sure but there’s a reason no number 1 seed has ever won it either but there’s a first time for everything! GBO!!!!
So… is Florida any good? They’re coming to my town to to play even though they’re below 500 in their conference with a 28-27 record. Were they that successful against that non conference schedule that was supposedly so good?
@@galveston What caused the season they had was their overall collective youth! It's amazing how many who've commented on Florida's inclusion in the tourney seem to be suffering from short term memory loss! The fact the Gators got 28 wins to me was remarkable considering all the major components they lost off last year's national runner-up squad and I mean we're talking most at the caliber that just can't be replaced over night! Regardless of the availability of the portal! Considering how loaded the SEC was again this season (Yawn!), I think they overachieved because besides Caglianone and Cade Kurland in the lineup, after them it tails off considerably
And wow did Wofford ever make the defending national champions work today, needing a walk off to win! The Tigers bats are gonna hafta improve production wise as this tournament progresses! Wofford proved they belonged and LSU escaped literally
I don't understand how they decide on these teams, oral Robert's 27-30, just cause they won their conference. It's weighted too heavy to win your conference
Oklahoma State dispensed with the University of Florida and their Superman quite nicely this evening. A little guy under six feet with a mop of blond hair took care of Jac Caglianone with ease.
if the final four teams aren’t SEC schools baseball power ranking mean nothing in the future, I don’t follow it that much but the top six teams all in the SEC? maybe I’m wrong but I’m guessing these “experts” are probability not the experts they think they are.
@@christinabauermeister7867 who cares about the conference? You still have to win games and they didn’t. They lost 17 conference games and overall barely went .500. That’s not a tournament team resume.
@@NikolaiG8 then why is Florida in? They didn’t rack up wins against anyone based on their record. 13-17 against teams that are good or bad is not good. How hard is that for people to understand? 28-27 overall is not good. Florida didn’t even rack up wins against the bad teams they played.
CAL was 20-5 over their last 25. Almost totaled Florida’s entire season worth of wins in half a season. The fact that Florida is in and CAL is out is fucking disgrace.
@@galveston I played at CAL, it’s no secret that the program lacks fan-based revenue. And when it comes to regionals being more and more televised, FL is going to pull more views
@@Chadb11 That's unfortunate. Of course anything to do with Florida is unfortunate. LOL I shouldn't say that since two of my teams best players are from Florida.
I'm a chants fan but I do agree with Charleston head coach we shouldn't be in we had a awesome start with a 27-15 but we weren't hrut we were Undisciplined had a pitcher transfer midway through the end had players going to bars before game day the next day players simlieing after loses . So yhea if there was eimation game to get in like basketball if coastal and c of c Charleston would've smoke us
Only 4 Sun Belt schools in? Troy snubbed? Troy and the Sun Belt were so good in baseball this year, I didn't check out to brackets to see IF they made it in. I checked out the brackets to see if they got a 3 or 4 seed and WHERE they got in... only to find that they got snubbed in favor of a bunch of also rans. This is a joke bracket.

@@chasemartin5373 It does matter, that's missed out revenue for their athletic department / baseball program.
Indiana State not hosting again is criminal. They had a great season, arguably better than last year… and they don’t host? Dumb dumb dumb

Even at 28-27, Florida is a more interesting story than Kentucky. Maybe it’s because Kentucky doesn’t really move the needle that much.

@@Chad13team went 28-27 and 13-17 in their conference. Should not be in the tournament. Clear bias, not even a question.

Florida loses to St. Mary’s of the poor and other great teams. Yeah deserving. One game over .500. Should go to the NIT

Florida is garbage and only got in because 1, they are Florida, 2 sec bias, and 3, large fan base
They’re unbelievably good. Tons of star power. SEC was absolutely brutal this year. Go look at their conference schedule!
They can’t be that good if they’re under 30 wins total. Were there injuries that caused this?
@@galvestonI hate Florida, but they won 2 series against super regional host this year 🤷♂️

I agree. Anyone facing y’all or Miss State had better watch out cuz y’all are going to be some dangerous 2 seeds
agreed from a msu fan, it was modern day robbery

How
How does northern Kentucky get in when there's teams in tougher conferences with better records
won their conference tournament
Half of the teams in the tournament are autobids. If any team wins their conference tournament they are automatically reserved a bid in the tournament
