Thread: Baseball America Top 25 ...

    Default Baseball America Top 25 ...

    The question I posted to Aaron Fitt regarding UL got answered first. Check out what he has to say.

    College Top 25 Chat With Aaron Fitt

    Moderator: Aaron Fitt will discuss the College Top 25 and college baseball in general in a chat beginning at 3:30 p.m. ET.

    Aaron Fitt: Hi everybody, let's get right to it.

    Patrick (Louisiana): Aaron, with the Sun Belt being so strong this year, do you see any possible scenario where Louisiana-Lafayette and South Alabama both host a regional? Or if say UL sweeps USA and ULM, along with winning the conference tournament which is in Lafayette this year... does UL get a chance to host? Thanks for your input! Go Sun Belt!

    Aaron Fitt: Patrick, I could see one of those teams hosting, but I really don't think both of them will host. The flaw in both of their resumes is a lack of wins against the top 50 -- South Alabama is 4-4, and UL-L is 2-5. I think whichever team wons the Sun Belt has a decent chance to host, especially if it couples the regular-season title with the tournament title, as you suggest. Certainly, the Cajuns are in the mix -- we'll break that down in more detail in tomorrow's Stock Report, and I plan to focus on that series in Weekend Preview later this week.

    Interesting that he plans to focus on the UL-South Alabama series in his Weekend Preview later this week... I'm looking forward to seeing what he has to say. We could do some real damage with a sweep this weekend guys. I'm starting to think us hosting a regional may not be out of the realm of possibilities.

    But, let's take it a week at a time.

    Someone else's question about the Cajuns was just answered...

    Matt (Lafayette): Any chance the Cajuns avoid Baton Rouge in the postseason? With the current state of the state of Texas, I am guessing the answer is, unfortunately, no.

    Aaron Fitt: Cajuns to Baton Rouge as a No. 2 seed feels like a pretty strong bet, but there are other likely No. 2s in that same geographic footprint (Rice, South Alabama), so maybe the committee winds up shipping UL-L elsewhere. I think UL-L to Baton Rouge feels likeliest, though.

    Man, we really need to get him away from calling us "UL-L". yuck.

    Send him a response and tell him we are now branding ourselves as Louisiana and UL and ask him to refer to us that way.

    Refer to us as Louisiana, and it won’t happen.

    Record vs top 50 will instantly improve if MT drops a couple spots. They crept into top 50 with their win at USA

    And of course, a series win this weekend
