My Dad was a Cardinals fan also. Lots of Houston people his age were Card fans. Before the Colt 45's/Astros, the Houston Buffs were a farm club of the Cardinals for many years. Dizzy Dean, among a number of future Cards, played for the Buffs before heading to the big old, old Busch 1 aka Sportsman Park or whatever the then name was.

That's pretty cool. I did not know that history. I'm a Cards fan and used to live in H-town. But I'm a red birds fan bc I have family from southern Illinois.
Wake has played themselves out of and semblance of a Top 8 losing 2 straight at home to the Wolfpack. May be hard to play themselves out of the Top 16 but they're trying. Wolfpack might be on the good side of the host bubble now.
Ags fall to #3 in the RPI with today's loss. OU drops the finale to Cincy and their RPI falls to 15. UCSB up to 12, Oregon State should jump the Gauchos if they finish off Arizona tonight. They're up 11-1 right now.

I was afraid the sleep deprivation over here was the issue
Vandy up 7-2 over Kentucky in the top of the 7th. Kentucky attempting to clinch their first-ever outright SEC title. They can also do this with a loss and a Tennessee loss later.
UGA up 1-0 on Florida in the bottom of 2 in Athens.

UK craps the bed on the last day and will be the #2 seed. Co-champs but not really the champ.
UGa spits the bit and is out of the national seed discussion IMO.
Ags now firmly in the top 4 national seeds, probably #2 or #4. I see no legit way the SEC doesn't have 4 of the Top 5 NS but they might push Clemson up there just for optics.

Mizzou at Miss St is tied at 2 in the bottom of 5. They're just coming out of a rain delay.
strong case for number 2 imo. Taking 2 of 3 from #3 arky is better than Kentucky taking 2 of 3 from vandy. Plus we have #1 RPi: we will seeSean98 said:

Is Texas almost assuredly coming to our regional?
Assuredly no, strong chance however. I will be pleasantly surprised if it does not occur.
I want Lamar going somewhere and stealing a regional, so I don't want them at Olsen. I don't want the Horns there either. Think I'm good with most anyone else close by.
Remind me, Omaha resets the bracket after supers yes?

Karma for cheating!
I hope so. So we can beat the hell out of them, as usual.Hand Of God said:

Yes, unless there is a closer non-BDF host they could swap with, or the committee gives them a host site.
Think we could get DBU as a two seed.
Texas has an RPI of 41. Zero chance they host. Zero. They're in as a 2 or 3.

Zero percent chance they host. 100% chance they are sent to College Station.
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

100%? I'd go closer to 60% I don't think anything when it comes to committee selections is 100%
A reminder that they've never been sent to a CS regional.
"I'm sure that won't make a bit of difference for those of you who enjoy a baseless rage over the decisions of a few teenagers."

If by 60% you mean 100%, then I agree.

I mean 60%. Nothing is 100%.
I hope Texas is #2 here. I'd be much more worried about other teams here as the #2. We won't overlook Texas. And the ballpark will be very loud.
Texas has never played in a CS regional.

Alabama at Auburn goes into a lightning delay with the Gumps up 12-5 in the top of the 9th.
Bama 3 run bomb. They are up 12-5 in the 9th
They are in with 13 wins imo

- Dallas Baptist (22)
- Louisiana Tech (27 - 297 miles)
- texas (41)
By RPI Texas should be a #3 seed but they won't be and LSU (29) should be a #2 Seed but they won't be.
Geographically the most rational pairing is texas to Aggieland, DBU to OU, LaTech to WooPig. Still possible LaTech could be a 3.
