Drawing Houston seems like it would be a pretty tough Regional.
Then hosting State?
I dont like it one bit!
Doesn't seem like too good a draw, but the #4 national seed? That's the highest I've seen. On another note, I don't see us escaping being paired with LSU if we're not both national seeds (and I don't see that happening.)
Man, every pairing we get is tough! We're gonna have to beat somebody, y'all.
Opening the CWS with Indiana? Sign me up for this one.
PS No way we get a #4 national seed.
Keep in mind you'd probably only have about 200 tickets provided for the visitor in a SR scenario.
I think this regional would be optimal. Houston has a very solid pitching staff but not great swingers and only above average fielders…. Kentucky has a bad bad man named AJ Reed who both pitches and hits at an extremely elite level. Let Houston go toe to toe with AJ Reed in game one, then both teams are significantly weaker after game 1, whereas we don't have much drop off between Aut, Baranik and Boutte. I would like our chances in this regional…
If you want to be the best, then you have to beat the best! I want to win no matter whom the opponent, but beating a national power in the same state can only help your program in recruiting. I don't need to have LSU as an opponent to enjoy the regional, but it certainly would be enjoyable knocking them out of the NCAA Field!
The Rice regional would be absolutely Brutal….
