Will Louisiana Softball Host a Regional?

[CajunRage]

Watching the 7innings show. Same panel. When will they stop referring to UL as a “mid-major?” I hate when that term is used for diamond sports. You’d think after years and years of playing at a high level, even hosting this year, they’d stop considering us, even TXST as “mid.”

It’s just a reminder to everyone that we do it with a fraction of the budget. Let them continue to acknowledge that against all odds, we still compete with the big girls!

I still feel like when Louisiana had the #1 Out of Conference SOS and RPI, and the #11 overall RPI, back when Scott Farmer was the committee chairman (but had to leave the room when LA was discussed) that Louisiana was delt the short end of the stick and didn't host.

That was 2012. Finished with #12 adjusted rpi ranking at selection and hosted as a 14. Only 4 games against the rpi top 25 just doesn’t cut it. They didn’t have the #1 SOS that year either.

What was the OOC RPI?

Be nice. She’s a true Lafayette alum.

Curious on yall thoughts?

Hopefully more folks now better understand the criteria that the NCAA employs in making its seedings and selections. Louisiana was safely in and was awarded a fair seed. And the human polls are not part of the selection criteria.

Thanks Brian! Always appreciate your information. This is my favorite time of year and your wealth of information and knowledge makes it even better.

Geaux Cajuns!

P.S. I'm surprised that after season ticket holders (of course), there is no RCAF priority period for softball tickets.

Yes.what's your point?

I don't really attend softball games (I watch on ESPN), but how likely is it that there will be OF bleacher tickets available to the general public for the regional?

Or are those usually sold out? Interested in bringing my kiddos.

Yea, Louisiana College was using Louisiana across their uniforms. Not sure if they still do after their rebrand to LCU.
