Troy leading Coastal 4-2, Top 8th

[ManAboutTown]

Would be a huge result for pretty much everyone not named Coastal. They are scorching hot coming into this tournament.

[CajunPilot1]

Coastal ties it up 4-4. Still at the plate, bottom 8.

Troy takes the lead in top 9th.
5-4….pitching change

5-4….pitching change

Thought they were dead. I want TXST and Troy again. Have to take care of business against SouthAL first.

[ManAboutTown]

Have to be really impressed with Troy offense in these late innings. Very disciplined and great 2 strike approach.

6-4 going to the bot 9

[ManAboutTown]

TROY advances. Wow.

TROY advances. Wow.

Are the Beach Chickens still safe for an at large?

[CAJUNJUDO]

Troy responded every time Coastal scored.
They avenged their sweep from them at home a couple weeks ago.
Should help attendance in Montgomery too.

Are the Beach Chickens still safe for an at large?

They’re in regardless. RPI in the 30s and good OOC record, good Q1 - Q2 record.

[CAJUNJUDO]

Are the Beach Chickens still safe for an at large?

1 and done’s are never good for teams on the edge.
Their RPI has dipped slightly too.

[CAJUNJUDO]

Good point. I wasn’t thinking about their quadrant record.

[ManAboutTown]

Georgia Southern about to get App St’s best shot.

Although I think the Eagles are way more talented and have the biggest advantage in the tourney with their field being the most similar to this field in Montgomery.

This would be one of the bigger upsets in recent SBC tourney memory if the Apps can get it done.

[JayWalker]

It is possible Coastal moved from a two seed to a three seed with the loss.

[raginbeef]

A deep run in the tournament definitely would have helped them solidify the 2 seed. I always think it’s an interesting dynamic in baseball and basketball conference tournaments where a team that is on the inside looking out is facing a team that is do or die to win the tournament. That mismatch in urgency can lead to some unsuspected results
