AT SECSports.com - it shows TBD vs TBD for all games.

I am looking for a bracket that show eg. Seed 5 vs Seed 10 etc. . .

I believe it still has to be TBD. Gabe said that this weekend's series could land A&M anywhere from #1 to #4.

Here's one I had thrown together in Excel. Round 1, the Semi's and Finals are all single elimination. Losers bracket is in the middle.

I went ahead and threw in the teams based on seeded as of Sunday. The Ags could still wind up anywhere from #1 to #6 based on how this weekend goes.

Is it single elimination or best of 3 for each opponent?

It's one game per matchup, no 3 game series.

I thinks it's a bit of an odd tournament format. If you lose in the first round or in the semifinals you're done. If you lose anywhere in between you get to try to go back through the loser's bracket.

It would make more sense to me if who ever came out of the loser's bracket had to beat the winner's bracket twice like in the regionals and CWS. I guess it's a scheduling/time thing.

Games 1-4, 15, 16 and the Championship are single elimination games.

That and not to overstress bullpens in order to win the tournament. The optimal tournament would start on Tuesday with eight teams playing a true double elimination tournament except for the championship. However the NCAA rarely picks teams for regional play if said team doesn't make its own conference tournament. Because of this the SEC expanded from an eight team tournament to a ten team tournament in 2012 after LSU with a good overall record and a RPI in mid-20s didn't make the SEC tournament in 2011 and hence wasn't included in the NCAA field. Then the field expanded to 12 teams when A&M and Mizzou joined the conference. Basically tournaments for the multiple bid conferences are a way to help build the resumes of the bubble teams but the SEC is often strong enough that the top eight teams are already securely in the NCAA field hence the expansion to first ten then twelve teams.
