I got Arizona State vs Florida in the final with ASU winning it again

 

I am taking James Madison!!

 

It's the easy pick but I will take the Sooners.

 

Sleeper pick to make the college world series would be South Alabama, 2 reasons, they had a lot of interest in Maddy after her coach left Radford and their region isn't great and while a super regional match up against Texas would be tough it wouldn't be impossible.

Go figure if you go by RPI, JMU is in the 3rd toughest region.

 

Alright, this is based on the most recent RPI (with games up to May 5). If they come out with another RPI (I think they will?) I'll update this.

 

Tempe, AZ -- 37.25

Louisville, KY -- 42.25

Knoxville, TN -- 42.75

College Station, TX -- 44.25

Lexington, KY -- 46

Eugene, OR -- 46.5

Lincoln, NE -- 49.25

Columbia, MO -- 53

Baton Rouge, LA -- 55.5

Seattle, WA -- 58.25

Tuscaloosa, AL -- 61

Austin, TX -- 67.5

Mobile, AL -- 80

Norman, OK -- 82

Gainesville, FL -- 83.25

Ann Arbor, MI -- 83.5

 

When you take out the lowest seed from each regional, this is how it stacks up.

Not sure this will copy right but a very short video of JMU when they found out they got in, pretty cool even if you could care less!!

My observations from watching some SEC ball... LSU"s ace Fico is very very good . I know she got hit pretty well against Ga on Thursday but her stuff was unreal. TN's lineup is murder's row . Man does it hurt to say anything good about those puke orange prison rejects. Ga swings it really well but might not have enough experience in the circle to make it to OK. Florida is odd, no superstar , pitching doesnt stand out , but they just keep getting it done .

With the mess surrounding her transfer, I'm sure Cheyenne Coyle would just love to beat her former teammates in the finals.

One thing for sure the SEC and PAC 12 are crazy good conferences.
