Bracketology & the Various Super-Regionals' Games

And we wake up Friday morning to the Horns back into the nine slot on RPI. While that isnt the sole determiner of seeding and hosting its one of the big ones. My only worry is the committee saying they aren't going to let a team that finished fifth in its conference host a regional because where you finish in the regular season matters.

D1 Baseball has Texas as the 11 seed with a regional that includes Arkansas matched up with aggy as the 6 overall seed in the supers.

If they think "finished two games out of first" instead of "finished in fifth place" they might see the hosting aspect differently
 
As games have progressed this evening the Horns have fallen back to 10th in the RPI but are solidly in the top 16 and at 41 wins I think they are one win away from guaranteeing a regional host slot making Saturday massive in its importance.
No pressure, Zane…
No pressure at all…
 
In terms of talent for the first 2 games, it’s Tenn and UT above the rest. In terms of bottom half of the bullpen, no one is worse than UT.
 
We're a shoe-in for a regional.
41+ wins with our schedule.
Top 10 ranking, RPI
Red hot lately.
Making waves in the conference tourney.

It's getting in the Top 8 and hosting a Super-Regional that's the real challenge.
 
Tech could be looking at a #3 seed. Although frankly it matters little whether you are a 2 or a 3 seed.
 
The 16 Regional hosts are:

Auburn
Texas
Va Tech
UNC
Maryland
Miami
Tennessee
Florida
Georgia Southern
So Miss
Okla State
Stanford
Oregon State
Texas A&M
Louisville
East Carolina
 
I wouldn’t mind going against Maryland in the Supers. Assuming we win our regional.
 
It’s been a long road fraught with many potholes, and more than our fair share of ups and downs, but in the end…….…….

Our team did it!!!!

If they want to screw the ags, they’ll send this red hot sooner team to College Station as a 2 seed.
 
Sometimes in past regionals, a previously unheralded player has stepped up and been the unexpected star of the tournament. Would love that to happen again this year--please let it be a pitcher.

Orrrrrrrr……..

How about a 3 Homerun game for Daly, Hodo, or Todd, or someone….

If we get through the regional we have an easy Super though—-East Carolina bracket
 
And just like that, I'm a Horny Toad fan. Which I can do, cause being a sooner fan was going to be difficult.
