Wow...three weeks left until selection Monday and we are getting some notice by baseball publications.

D1 has us as one of their last 5 out.
Baseball America has us as one of their last 4 out.

Have to win 5 of 7 and a finals appearance in the belt tourney

In reality ... that is X + Y 'th team out. Where X is the Cajuns' positioning in that left out group (2nd team left out, etc.) and Y is the number of stolen bids that will take place in 2018.

Win the conference tourney

We haven’t won 3 consecutive days yet this year. Would be a good time for a first time in the conference tourney

I still get confused with what 'last 4 out' means. Any help understanding this better would be appreciated.

We would be one of the last 4 teams NOT to make the NCAA. We would be; 65, 66, 67 or 68 of the field of 64.

Rather that than depending on the committee to put us in.

The fact that we are even in this discussion after our abysmal start is a miracle in itself. Now, it’s time to keep the momentum going and win the games that count, so we can be one of the last 4 IN rather than out.

The field consist of 64 teams. Thirty-one teams are autobids. The other 33 teams are selected by committee. When someone says last X out they mean that these were the teams basically deemed 34-35-36 etc. and were on the verge of making it into the field.

This goes back around to stolen bids. This happens when a team wins an autobid and gets in when they otherwise would not have AND it results in another conference mate taking an at large selection. For example if someone in the bottom half of the SBC were to win the conference tournament that would result (more than likely) in Coastal Carolina taking an at large bid. Where as if Coastal would win the tournament that frees up an at large bid.

That's what I thought....thanks for confirming. And I also agree that it is amazing that we are still in discussion after the horrendous start we had.
