    i'm surprised (not really) they didn't move to number one in at least collegiate baseball. uc irvine swept a pathetic uc davis team, and loss to san diego 9-2 last week. their schedule is pretty darn weak too. but to be honest, i like the anteaters. they've been a program on the rise the last few years.

    CWS finals one year and being within 4-5 outs of beating LSU in the Box the next. They're a good club. :)

    But I saw in some projections they were picked to be in the same region as San Diego State.

    That's interesting in that when that Strasberg kid pitches, it may well be a loss for anyone in the country. So that's a tough matchup.

    So at this point do we have a top 8 seed locked up? If not what do we have to do in the tourney?

    I'm confident that we got it locked up.

    SEC champs, #2 in country, plus a brand new playground with 10,000k plus seat sure to be sold-out, should lock us in.

    agreed. even though hawthorne & co. like to say that ballparks don't get you anywhere with the NCAAs these days... that, paired with being SEC champs and ranked second.... it's a lock.

    "it's a lock" is a phrase that should NEVER be used...especially if you follow recruiting :thumb:
