Tennessee is a top 10 team. Better than SCAR.

Everyone here was saying the SEC is overrated. Now we get a chance to prove that by knocking out Tenn and Auburn. If the SEC is truly overrated why are we worrying about a team that finished 16-15 in conference play?

I would agree but I think part of the problem here
May 29, 2023, 12:53 PM

is that they don't actually seed teams beyond 16. They also still seem to place a significance on regional proximity like that still matters in 2023. Tulane is in the LSU regional because they are in the same state. If you seed 1-64 they go to Wake Forest. I think a big part of why we got Tenn is that they are only 3.5 to 4 hours away. It also doesn't help that we were only 1 of 8 possible sites to send them with 8 SEC hosts. I actually don't know if there's a hard rule in place but I'm assuming they won't put a 2 seed and a 1 seed from the same conference in the same regional.

That's not the point. The point is they are ignoring the

seeding. They are supposed to put the better teams against the lower seeds. A #4 seed draw shouldn't be one of the 3 or 4 most difficult draws. If you don't care if there is any meaning to seeding then this thread isn't for you. That's all this is about.

- They won their last two series against Regional Hosts.
- The swept Vandy (another host)
- D1 baseball has them at #13
- ELO RPI has them at #9
- They have 10 MORE Quad 1 wins than most other #2 seeds.

Thats like saying,we can't beat Tenn. If we get too Omaha we will
be playing some really good teams.We can't walk thru and say we
are getting screwed.
