Other teams of note: Texas Tech - #8 National seed, UVA - 3 seed and Bryant - 4 seed

(Fairfield - 3 seed in #1 Arkansas’ Regional)
Baseball America pushed another projection through last night so off we go to another regional. Knoxville here we come.


1. Tennessee (#7 National seed)
2. Georgia Tech
3. Connecticut*
4. Wofford*

Other teams of note: Texas Tech - #6 National seed, UVA - 3 seed and Bryant - 4 seed

AAC is a one bid league here.
 
Think I’d rather be a 3 seed somewhere else... ;)


1. Vanderbilt (2 National seed)
2. Connecticut*
3. Maryland
4. Southeast Missouri State*

Other teams of note: Texas Tech (8) National seed. USM - 2 seed, Virginia - 3 seed and Bryant - 4 seed.

(Fairfield a 3 seed in Gainesville bracket)

Pick a region, any region. #anywhereanyone


1. Arizona (#4 National seed)
2. Connecticut*
3. UC Santa Barbara
4. Grand Canyon*

I have yet to see a single predictions that seeds us as high as our RPI would. Hopefully the Committee is more computer reliant this strange season than normally. Because i we hold an RPI of 20, you'd hope to play the 13 seed nationally, not the 4 seed.

We just keep rolling. Let’s get a win tonight and get into championship game. Clicking on all cylinders. My hope is that we win BE tourney. With the way we played at end of year and our RPI being currently 21, I think we would deserve a 2 seed.

Let’s say our RPI ends at 21, that means we have the 5th best RPI for a 2nd seed. That should mean we should be placed in a bracket with #12 number 1 seed. I know that logic is not exactly how it is decided, but would be very disappointed to be placed in a top 5 number 1 seed regional.

I will update my chart one last time after BE Tournament.

Go Huskies !!!

The spitballing continues....

3. Indiana
4. CMU

Fairfield shouldn't be anywhere near the danger zone. It absolutely deserves to be going at 38-3 or whatever.
I don’t necessarily disagree but others don’t have it as clearcut from a committee perspective (let me know if folks can’t access):

I'm only speaking of what should happen. They far more than earned themselves the right to see how they compete against bigger schools. One bad series which you came into at 2 or 3 in RPI doesn't change that.

I understand not paying attention to an RPI that doesn't make sense when it comes to seeding, as happened with Colgate in the basketball tournament. But not inviting a team that has been that high all year would be absolutely criminal. The purpose of the tournament is to find the best. We don't know that Fairfield isn't the best. I highly doubt it but we just don't know. We do know whomever the last at large selection will be, who finished tenth in the SEC or 9th in the ACC or whatever, is not the best team.

Yep, I didn't know if the lack of top 50 wins prejudices them. RPI looks great though:

I know this is not a "football', aka soccer post, but........................"Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea.........Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea".

Go BLUES!
 
Ask this. If UConn doesn't win the Big East tourney, with its automatic bid; which squad is better? UConn or Fairfield? Any doubt which belongs in the NCAAs?

Sorry Fairfield. I really wanted you in, but you blew it.
Those are not mutually exclusive statements, there's more than 1 at large bid

1. Notre Dame (#5 National seed)

There was a quick update last night by Baseball America after yesterday’s results. No change in projected Regional but ND dropped a few seed spots and Indiana out - Indiana St in.


1. Notre Dame (#7 National seed)
2. Connecticut*
3. Indiana St
4. CMU

(Fairfield still the #3 seed in #1 Arkansas’ Regional)

Be careful what you wish for because it may come true. But I really like this bracket for us

Exactly. I always at that. Big conferences in any sport get so over rated in the middle layer it is ridiculous. Fairfield has had an amazing run. They deserve a bid over for what the accomplished over some mid level team from a power league.
