Good list, but I think the Southland should be added to the list of tournaments to watch. Regular season champ Sam Houston is sitting at 50 in the RPI. If they win some games in the tournament, but get upset in the final, I think they might still get an at large bid, effectively stealing one of the at large spots


Thanks. I'll dig into it further as the week progresses.

Just noticed also that I had screwed up in the Sunbelt. I must have looked at just a division in the conference or something because I left some teams out.

Kentucky bunts runner to third. 1 out.

Looks like it may not be just a chance of rain that pushes the LSU game start time back.


STRIKE OUT for out number 2.... Runner still on 3rd.

30-45 minutes after this one.

Its been cloudy as well. So extra innings, rain could push the time back.

As we stand now though, around 5:45ish

Sucks man. Let's hope Auburn can end this soon. UK is riding the shite out of Hjelli on short rest.

Almost every single year, this tournament is a painful abortion. You try to play four 3-hour games in the same day, pray it doesn't rain, pray nothing goes extra innings, have a day of single elimination, followed by a couple of days of double elimination, followed by another couple of days of single elimination. Playing a baseball tournament over 6 days with 12 teams is just plain stupid, and most of the coaches would tell you the same thing. And I say this as an ardent fan of the team that wins or makes the title game almost every year.

The best answer I have is to do what softball does. 12 teams, single elimination all the way. Top 4 get a bye. Start Wednesday, finish Saturday, with Sunday as a backup in case of rain. Almost seems too easy.

I'm a fan of the way the ACC does their tournament.

I didn't see it announced anywhere. Maybe they were just guestimating the time this game would finish.

Well IF the game ended now, which it won't. The start time would be 6:10pm. So estimating that they'll play a little bit longer. I'd say anything from 6:30pm-7pm start.

I’m asking about the time gap between games. Is it 30 minutes, 45 minutes, about tree fiddy minutes?

Auburn beats UK in 11. Nice help for LSU. Now let's just go out and take care of business.

There are two types of non LSU fans on here.
1. Fans of other teams
2. Fans of Orgeron who want baseball to fail, so a LSU coach can be less successful than Ed.

That's where the down votes come from.
