With 52 Appearances in the Tourney

We SHOULD close out the Selection Show.

Nice one.

We're the last Sleeper and "52 years in the tournament and it seems like Coach Garrido has been there every year" is the last thing you hear as the show goes off the air.

I hope Will Kimmey is not going to be a regular member of ESPN's broadcasting teams when they get to Omaha. I don't think I can handle it. I guess ESPN thinks that because he once wrote for Baseball America that makes him an expert. The man has no concept of baseball outside of the Southeast, though he proclaims to be "a West Coast guy" when it comes to style.

All of that said, I like that Kyle Peterson picked Rice as his champion and Texas as his sleeper. I think it's best for this team to be under the radar -- at least as far under the radar as a Texas team can really be in college baseball. I like them better as the team no one respects rather than the team everyone has in their crosshairs.

In 2005, everyone overlooked Texas. The Horns didn't even get a national seed that year. Tulane and Florida were all anyone could talk about. And Texas made them all look ridiculous in Omaha.

How will the Super Regionals be determined? If we knock Rice off and win the Houston regional, where will we end up? Collie Station if aggy wins it's regional?

thanks

Yes. If A&M wins their regional and Texas wins their regional, A&M hosts. If Texas wins in Houston and anyone other than A&M wins in College Station, Texas hosts.
