Does not work that way.

Looking at the bracket. The 1,4,5,8 seeds and the 2,3,6,7 seeds are on opposite sides.

Those super regionals are played on the same days. To make the "off" days the same for the opening round in the CWS.

So the only cases you have are:
Fri-Sat-Sun: 1,4,5,8
Sat-Sun-Mon: 2,3,6,7
or
Fri-Sat-Sun: 2,3,6,7
Sat-Sun-Mon: 1,4,5,8
