    I don’t know this for sure but I’m pretty sure the thought of extending Boehm last week for 60+ pitches was to prepare him for a potential start in a regional if the situation calls for it.

    This honestly isn’t the worst idea but my guess is Grubbs takes the ball on Friday.

    They struggled early in the year against better competition then put some things together and cruised through the Sun Belt before dropping both games of the conference tourney. They are good on the mound, probably around average at the plate.

    I love it when someone gets called out for an awful take then responds by putting words in the other person’s mouth.

    You are embarrassing yourself. Have you seen the Pac12 play this year and how many teams got in the field?

    If we lose to Grambling we might as well end the program

    I don’t think the 6th best RPI conference should be getting multiple hosts, but that is just my opinion. Their overall resume was better than Texas (silly discussion, we were never close to hosting). Arizona had 5 losing weekends on the year and a RPI in the 30’s. You just don’t typically see the committee reward that, but maybe they will weigh conference titles more moving forward. The biggest issue I continue to have is the committee seems to change their criteria randomly. One year RPI is king, then the next year it’s conference titles. There needs to be some level of consistency. Indiana State went out and played a tough non con schedule too and had the same number of Q1 wins as Arizona with a RPI of #10 and will be playing on the road.

    Arizona was 11-1 in Q4 games. We were 13-8. Arizona was also the regular season and tournament champions in their conference. Also played the #1 non con SOS. I don’t think they deserved to host but our resume wasn’t close and we weren’t climbing 20 RPI spots to get into the low 30’s even with a 4-0 run.

    Absolutely. But I have a feeling they are going to send one of the host snubs there. Maybe Miss State. Another angle they could want is LSU as the 2 seed. Jay Johnson back to the place he left LSU for.

    I mentioned earlier I am shocked ECU is hosting, but I’m honestly even more surprised Arizona is hosting. RPI in the 30’s in the 6th (!) best RPI conference. Every time they played a team with a pulse, they seemed to lose. Series losses to Oregon, Oregon State and San Diego. Also lost a series to Washington (lol) and lost 2 of their 3 in their early season tournament in Frisco. Arizona was 3-9 (!!!!!!!!) in Q1 games. 3 and 9.

    Kansas State and Coastal Carolina have AD’s on the committee and both are on the bubble.
  12. Hookem2147
    I can not believe ECU is hosting over Mississippi State or Duke.
  13. Hookem2147
    Yes, LSU has looked much better the last 10-12 games. The season is also longer than 2-3 weeks. The 17 SEC losses and loss to a SWAC school still happened. A top 10-15 team in the country is hosting a regional next weekend. When your coach declares it is not even debatable you are a top 10-15 team, that is a dumb comment considering the circumstances. This is in addition to his comment a few weeks earlier when they were 7-14 declaring they would be in first place in any other conference besides the SEC.

    Arizona walks it off against USC. LA Tech also beats Liberty twice today to advance to the CUSA final against DBU so won’t be a stolen bid there. Considering how weak the bubble is this year and the lack of stolen bids so far, might be a pretty anticlimactic selection Monday.
  16. Hookem2147
    I don’t think they should be in either. They have non con losses to UCF, St. John’s, Stetson, Jacksonville and FSU twice. It isn’t like they have just struggled in conference play.
  17. Hookem2147
    We aren’t far away from 11-19 and 12-18 SEC teams sneaking into the field. May be as soon as next year.

    ECU flirted with disaster against Rice on Tuesday for about 7 innings and got their teeth kicked in today by Wichita State. If anyone else wins the AAC tournament, it would be a bid-stealer. ECU may also be sweating a hosting spot now.

    This isn’t getting overturned
  21. Hookem2147
    Hahahaha how do you overturn that
  22. Hookem2147
    The casual 6 out inning
  23. Hookem2147
    They scored that O’Dowd play a hit
  24. Hookem2147
    Ah yes, the leadoff walk after being gifted the lead
  25. Hookem2147
    Hitting with runners at 3rd and less than 2 outs has been awful both days.
