re: Baseball America updated bracketology 5/23

[quote]that has more to do with the Carolinas being stacked though so they always have plenty enough host sites. Last D1 projection had 12 Carolina teams in[/quote]
Valid point, but if they don't want to put LSU in southern/Texas regionals more often than not, why do they collect all those Caroli...

re: Winning the SEC Tournament vs winning CWS Championship?

[quote]Thinking that correlation =/= causation if it doesn't happen every year is certainly a take.
Fact of the matter is, the trend for the last 15 years has been that teams that have success in the SEC tourney more often than not struggle in the NCAA tourney. That trend has gotten even stronger...

Well, presumably that number of underwater mortgages plummeted during COVID because people refinanced to sub-3% interest rates combined with the home values going up by 30%+. ...

8-10 years ago people would have said to pay more than $300k for any home would be absolutely stupid.

See I think the opposite.
A regional is going to be harder for this team than a SR.
They could conceivably start 2-0 with Jump and Holman, then have to figure out how to win 1 of 2 against a top-16 team with this group. ...

LSU was left out once with an RPI around 22. Didn't make the SEC Tournament by a tiebreaker I think, which led the SEC to expand the tournament to more teams. I think that was back when it was 8 teams. ...
