So it's a basketball tournament format, essentially.

Awesome so play 5 games in 6 days to win a championship (that likely doesn’t matter to advance) 4 possibly 3 days before the start of the postseason.

I actually kinda like it. If you’re a top 4 you’re likely not fighting to get into the tournament and may even have a hosting spot locked up and only have to play 3 games max, no more than a normal weekend. The teams that are on the bubble get to get a win or 2 before playing the top 4.

Maybe it doesn't work with 16 teams, but the ACC should have given us a perfect example of a good end of season conference tournament.
I believe the ACC has 12. Just leave 4 SEC scrubs at home and run a tournament like they do. It's far superior to what the sec does now, and what they are planning to do.

Don’t mind this. as much as I love the atmosphere of 1am baseball games in Hoover, this is a fair setup.
getting the advantage of top 4 to only have to go with your regular weekend rotation to win it all is a nice plus. Makes the regular season have a decent payoff if you can avoid having to play 5 games and won’t have to worry about wearing down your bullpen prior to regionals.
pool play like in the ACC also would’ve been acceptable.

How’s that fit with summertime Hoover weather? Is there room for rainouts?

Top 12 would make more sense. Bottom four need to stay home.
