I believe if they run the table, they’ll get in. Another loss anywhere and I think the at-large bid is gone. They really should go 5-0. Cincy on the road could be an issue but Creighton/Butler need to be wins. They’re peaking. My only question is will all facets of this team peaking be enough come tournament time to continue this good play against top competition. I think they’ll get an opportunity to answer that.
Xavier seems like they have a decent chance at an at large bid with their RPI and SOS and I could see the committee expanding the big east to a 2 bid league if they don’t win. I can’t see them giving 3 bids if UConn or X don’t win the conference tourney though so I tend to agree that an at large bid for UConn is still pretty tenuous right now.

It’s been tenuous since it became a realistic chance again. If things are fairly equal in the numbers game, I think Uconn has the advantage. My belief is that if Uconn wins out in the reg season, their in regardless of the BE Tourney outcome. Need to win today though.

Agreed completely. There can be a tendency to get complacent seeing UConn on a bunch of mock regionals but that spot is far from a sure thing. Need to control what they can and keep winning

I think the mocks by college baseball writers are a sign of respect. It is earned and great in & of itself. The committee, however, respects power conferences and will put an SEC team with 18-20 conference losses in over us with a smile on their face. Huskies have to go 18-3 in conference and get to championship game to not be sweating bullets on selection Monday.

The respect ur alluding to is true. I look at it as the Respect nationally lacks substance. It’s sincere, but like u said. It’s hardly worth noting. The only way to change that is to schedule and win against them. Win on a national stage when they get an opportunity. I believe having a presence in the Northeast in the tourney is important for the committee but unfortunately Northeastern is also an option.
 
Wonder if the senior ceremony today will be streamed online.
I got nada… but I am thinking about the Broadway in Boston promo deal that keeps repeating;)

Checked UConn+ too…

Could not get the game through the links on the UConn website. Had to go onto FloSports website to get access to the game. I have the game on now.

Nice inning. Need to follow it with a Cookie shutdown inning.
 
Top 4th, Cooke gives up 2 singles and a walk to load the bases with 2 outs. A hit by pitch brings in a run. 7-1 UConn. Another run scores on a wild pitch, 7-2 UConn. A walk loads the bases again.

Cooke comes out of the game, Cinnella takes the mound.

A single drives in 2 more runs, 7-4 UConn. A walk loads the bases again. Another single drives in 2 runs, 7-6 UConn. A ground out finally ends the inning. 7-6 UConn.
