What say you? Do we make the tournament and if so what seed?

Agreed, those teams the last two years were championship caliber teams.Capitol Ag said:Stagecoach said:

The Childress Condition
A. Why is this even starred?
B. So is the "Childress Connection" a team that wins conference titles and goes to Supers but barely misses the CWS or is it an outlier team that makes a regional on a down year with a chance that anything can happen? This "Childress Connection" or whatever some seem to define it as seems to change to match the person's agenda who is using it. To me, one could rightly argue that given this was always a down year, RC and his staff coached a hell of a year to get this squad to a regional. There are plenty of things to be critical of Childress about, but making the post season THIS year isn't one. All programs have down years. It's just a reality of college baseball. I am more critical of RC not taking one of the last 2 squads (15 or 16) to a CWS than how far he goes this one year.
C. To answer the question, we are in. I have no doubts personally. Granted, not on committee and anything can happen, but the committee has never denied an SEC team with a winning conference record. Feel like that will hold true this year as well.
OU is not going to host. I can see Lubbock happening, and I'm honestly fine with that.Aggie_Eric98 said:

You can say that all you want, but the 2015 and 2016 teams were just as good if not better than any big 12 team we had...just a much harder conference to win.W said:
one note about Childress' conference championships...
in his first 6 years (2006-2011)...he won 5 titles.
3 tournament championships and 2 regular season championships.
in the last 6 years (2012-2017)...he has only won 1 title.
1 tournament championship.
--------
that metric is not trending in the right direction. It needs refreshing / replenishing. Can't hang the hat much longer on titles won 8, 9, 10 years ago

So are you going to keep posting "The Childress Condition"? Do you think it's going to catch on somehow?
