Lets look at LSU going 0-3 vs UF while Miami went 2-1.

I feel like tPOS right now defending an ACC team

Its not even really any discussion..if Miami goes 1-2 against decent Duke, Clemson and GT/Wake then they will get a national seed.

He's saying that if you choose select samples, you can favor it in either way. Thus, you should look at the entire season.

Though, 30 games is a large sample.

LOL, sure it will hurt LSU, but I am sure Miami has some games there that will make you scratch your head.

I am just sick of the ACC suck fest esp. when they don't do anythign to separate themselves from anyone else and the SEC has a better RPI as a whole. Besides, how many times does the ACC get the high seeds and get stomped in Regional and Super Regional play, esp when they play SEC head-to-head.

4-5 SEC hosts with 10-11 in regionals.

3 ACC hosts with 8 in.

You think that should be used when seeding teams?

Definetly agree here.

How many times have the Pac 12 won the whole thing lately?

Now watch how many teams they get in this year and how many hosts. This year is this year.

Watch out Miami went 0-2 in a regional in 2012.

You might lose your national seed now.

I truncated the "and Super Regionals" part of your post.

I honestly don't know if the ACC or the SEC loses more host teams in the tourney prior to the CWS.

Its gotta be the ACC..but Vandy doesnt help the SEC. They have been national seeds and stumbled before.

This also has no bearing into whether Miami gets a national seed over LSU.

You think a tournament title is more impressive than a regular season title?

Apparently the ACC does because they do not award conference championships for regular season play and haven't for over 40 years.

Techincally no one does, because tournament champs receive the automatic bid. Doesnt mean its right.
