Conference tournaments don't do squat to show who the best team in the conference is. That's what the season is for. If the NCAA had their way, we wouldn't play the season and only play the conference tournament. That's how stupid the rules are.

By the way, Geaux Cornhuskers!

Nope. NCAA is too stupid to realize the fact that the actual best team is the one that won the regular season championship.

Then the SLC office is just as stupid as the NCAA. To hell with the great season McNeese had right? Let's just look at the struggles from the end of the season and judge the whole season on a few games.

Conference tournament is all that matters in the eyes of the stupid NCAA.

The conference decides who gets their bid. So your issue is with the conference, not the NCAA.

But feel free to keep whining.

Why do you think the NCAA cares? It's up to each conference to determine how their automatic bid is granted. For years the Pac 10/12 never had a baseball tournament. The automatic bid went to the regular season champion.

Electoral college situation? Slu can lose conference tourney and still receive nomination by the conference.

I forgot Artigues was head of the committee. Maybe Southeastern sneaks in as the last time in

No but the Southland could always decide to not have a conference tournament at all.

Hard to see the Southland getting multiple bids…

6-seed HCU wins the Championship Series in a 2-game sweep over 8-seed UNO to clinch the SLC's auto-bid

Also interesting that ESPN has both SLU & UTRGV among the 1st 4 out

You screwed yourself, Southland

What does Lunardi know about baseball?

If this was the old days before NIL and the portal, one would deserve a bid

But since the best players will transfer to P4, their bids will transfer too. The numbers might look okay, but the Southland is a minor league for the AAC, Sun Belt, and CUSA now

This is what all conferences need to to in baseball, softball, and basketball. Only way to guarantee the best teams are truly represented.
