Before I put down my projections, I wanted to share a tweet from Kendall's Rogers just posted a few hours ago:

quote:

From my standpoint, #OregonState #UNC #TexasTech #Florida #TCU #Louisville look locked into Top 8s. Feel very good about #LSU w/ W today.


Here are my projections:
1. Oregon St
2. Louisville
3. UNC
4. Florida
5. Texas Tech
6. TCU
7. LSU
8. Stanford

Louisville too high. Drop them below UNC and UF. And Kentucky before Stanford.

But that would give SEC three National Seeds and I don't think that will happen this year because it's such a tight race

The committee shouldn't ignore Kentucky's 19 top 50 RPI wins.

You have the right teams in but I think Louisville is down to 6 and move UNC to 2, Tech to 3, Florida to 4, and TCU to 5. Stanford and Kentucky will battle out for the final national seed and I think Stanford has the edge right now

1) Additional West Coast National Seed
2) Avoid two national seeds in close proximity (LOU/KY)
3) Committee makes some decisions

All I got...

How they have finished the regular season vs how Kentucky has. Stanford is playing good baseball right now meanwhile Kentucky isn't. Depending on how far Kentucky goes in Hoover could impact a lot. If Kentucky makes a deep run in Hoover I could see Kentucky getting the national seeed over Stanford but as of today I'm going with Stanford over Kentucky and I think the committee would think so too

Love talking college baseball so I will throw in my two cents on the Kentucky vs. Stanford national seed talk.

-NCAA selectors are going to want at least 2 Supers out West
-Kentucky has lost 2 of its last 3 series overall
-Kentucky finished 3rd in its conference
-Kentucky only has 38 overall wins
-Stanford could finish with 40 overall wins(still 4 games left)
-Stanford could finish 21-9 or 20-10 in Pac 12 play finishing 2nd
-Stanford has won its last 5 series overall(would be 6 w/win next weekend)
-Pac 12 has no league tourney, just one series left overall. Stanford plays Washington State, which is sweepable.

I give the nod to Stanford for the last national seed at this point.

18 top 50 RPI wins vs 8. That's tough to overcome.
