Well, this is the last update of the year. From everything we are hearing, it seems like we are in. We did OK in meeting my unscientific goals below . Would have been nice to win a few more games in the New England and Other Game categories. Think we left some opportunities behind.

Would be surprised if we don't get in, but crazier things have happened. Hoping ECU loses today, that would make me more comfortable. If we get in and maybe get a favorable Regional, you never know what can happen.

Thanks to everyone who posts great more detail then I. You guys make following team very enjoyable.

Well, the B1G is definitely knocking a team off the bubble. Northwestern beat Maryland and is playing Iowa in the finals.

Normally I would be salavating at the thought of us going to Clemson as it is just down the road. However the family has had a trip planned to Anaheim, CA next week. Now I am hoping for them to get placed in Long Beach and hope I can talk the wife into letting me slip away for a day to catch a game. One can dream right.

I'm close. I'll be there if they get that slot.

Maryland might be the team knocked out!

15-39 Illinois State is about to win their conference tournament vs. #22 Missouri State...

No. If they win, they play Dallas Baptist in the title game.

Houston appears to be getting the job done so I'm gaining confidence. A lot of things will need to go the wrong way for us to be snubbed at this point.

...and South Alabama gives up lead to Georgia Southern in the T9 -- 6-4

SJU's RPI is only a few places higher than UConn. UConn's SOS was 49, SJU was in the 200's. Wondering how the committte will look upon that stat.

...and South Alabama gives up lead to Georgia Southern in the T9 -- 6-4

South Bama just went B2B first two batters of B9 to tie game. Wow...

Extras... SBama had bases loaded and 2 outs when first baseman made an awesome diving play in hole and throw to nab runner @ first.

This #FunBelt game is nuts. USA had bases loaded, 2 out in B9. Grounder to first, race to bag between batter & pitcher. Dives—barely out.
