Just--- your Ole Miss Fandom and the username "Oxford", plus that username was talking about college baseball. And it was late at night and made sense in my head. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a difficult weekend to try to play the Coral Gables Regional with a Tropical Storm incoming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have looked to know if Ole Miss is the team that "shouldn't have gotten in" but.. Rutgers, unquestionably, should be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Used to be much more dialed in on stuff like this. But is it our new normal for this many upsets in College Baseball? Saw it mentioned on twitter but half the top 16 seeds could be eliminated today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notre Dame is just flat out better then Georgia So. (Who is the top seed)... Same thing with Oklahoma. They're flat out better than UF. There were A LOT of games (Arkansas vs OKST) where--- ok, OKST is ranked but Ark is a POWER and was ranked top 5/10 all year long, struggled late, so didn't host. Michigan beating Louisville is hilarious and awesome. UCONN fits the mold from above, as well. They were top 20 all year and couldn't put together to resume to host. Honestly, Tex St, as well. They are currently ranked 13th. VCU was an upset, for sure. LSU over So Miss (same thing) lower seed (LSU) is a POWER. So---- to answer your question, no, it's not usual for that to happen-- but if you look at the Sat night matchups, I don't think it was overly surprising we saw a fair amount of these teams struggle, in this particular year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Hoping we can make it back next year. It feels like it's been a lot longer than 3 years since we played postseason baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two transfer arms we just got should help a lot with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 1.5 yr old Great Dane got his balls chopped off this week, along with another surgery to ensure he doesn't have bloating issues..... and getting him to calm down this week so the stitches don't rip, has been one helluva struggle... 🤣🤣 So, admittedly this morning, I was just laying in bed holding him... so I had some time to type that out. 🤦♂️🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missouri State is about to put Oklahoma State out of its own regional. IU won a series in Springfield this year.

TheWatShot Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 I can't get over how silly it is that highly-ranked teams who haven't lost yet are the visiting teams on their own fields. Yes, I'm still bitter about how one of our best teams ever went down on a walkoff home run in our own stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coached probably 400 games in my life and it certainly didn't feel like it was a big thing, maybe it was. Never tracked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ/Ole Miss (AZ gotta win twice) 12pm Lou/Mich 6pm UNC/VCU 6pm Maryland/UCONN Vandy/ORST Ark/OKST LSU/USM ECU/CCU Tex St/Stanford UF/OKLA (Aub is up big on UCLA in an elim game) Tennessee, VT, ND, Aub, TexAM, Texas have advanced. (within 3 inning) SEC has a chance to have 8 teams in the supers. If Ole Miss wins they will be at UNC/VCU btw... they'll have a lot of people with them regardless.
