The Field of 64 and The Bubble

Lamar didn’t get in? That’s brutal. They are legit.

RPI in the 60s range. Nicholls was a few spots ahead of them. Most of the SLC doesn’t buy into baseball. SBC has enough buying in to pull the dead weight.

This is also the time of year another lefty showed up out of nowhere and got us into a regional in College Station 1 year ago.......Marshall,. be nice to see this again!

Yep. Gonna need some hero performances from some guys like that one was.

*got us into the Miami regional

But the SLC is a decent enough baseball league. I just feel teams like Charleston and Lamar were overlooked simply because of elitism or ignorance. Florida making the cut is laughable.

Does Florida put fear into the eyes of their opponents more than Lamar and Charleston? Yes. But don’t inject them with life and a fresh start when more deserving teams are available.

I felt TCU should have been in before Florida and Texas. Actually figured they’d be in Texas’s spot. Ironically I’m more afraid of Texas than TCU even though I think TCU should be there.

Lamar was 3-1 in Q1 with a sweep of Oklahoma. They were 4-5 in Q1 and 2 combined. 29-5 against Q4. Sorry, gotta schedule better or win your bad conference.

Also they were 12-9 on the road 24-4 at home. I’ve herd it’s tough to beat them in Beaumont, wink wink

Gonna need quite a few guys to have great weekends to win this regional

We will need to have a complete team effort and show up hot at the line up exchange.

No way TCU evaluates higher than Texas. It is not close. Texas was on the bubble for a #2 seed.

pretty much every team in a regional will need to get hot to advance

once it gets to this level, every team can win and each team who advances is pushed beyond their respective depths

Ok. Won’t question you on it. Haha. What about TCU compared to coastal and JMU?

True.

Some will have to stay hot, and some will have to get hot.
