Using D1 RPI to compare the regionals...

We have the easiest regional by a wide margin.
This is a narrow way to judge it but it supports my Geaux Tigers narrative.
We have the lowest ranked 2 seed at 37th. Judging just by 2 seeds, Florida and Clemson kind of shafted.
If you take the average RPI of just the 2 and 3 seeds, we still have the lowest ranking at 54th. Wake Forest has a relatively tough 3 seed in Northeastern at an RPI of 31, which is higher than their 2 seed Maryland at 35.
The average RPI of our 2,3 and 4 seeds is 88th which is also the lowest (obviously Tulane wasn't going to change the numbers for the worse).

Wake Forest will be benefited by Northeastern and Maryland eating their bullpens up battling before they get to Wake.

Wake will likely dominate their regional. I still found the RPI numbers interesting.

Maryland can easily eat Wake Forest. They have a legit offense. The ACC per usual is overrated.

Wake's bullpen is very good. Should be a fun match up to watch.

Nobody got shafted more than Arky. If you don't believe it, find a fan and ask them.

Haven’t had time to read tRant today to see what people are finding to whine about but LSU got a very fortunate draw for dropping down to #5 seed.
Eye test - LSU has one of the easiest regionals so curious to see what people don’t like about it when have time to peruse later considering the numbers back that up.

TCU or Arizona will win that regional. Book it.

Wake is good, but they didn’t exactly face a murderer’s row of a schedule. They do have a legit ace though.

Maryland is tough. Watched them a few times.

I hope you are absolutely correct, but I don't think so.
Arkanshit has one of the easiest paths to Omaha in all of the bracket. Very favorable Super matchup (Indiana St? Iowa? N.C.?) when they walk through their regional.
