(thanks and $1 to Scooter for the TAMU heads-up!)
If your goal was to host a regional, then relax. Barring a sinkhole appearing at BTF over whe weekend, that's a given.
But if you're Clemson, and you dare dream of a national seed, there are a few games you'll want to pay attention to today:
Clemson vs. Wake: Well, Duh! A loss here stalls everything as far as national aspirations go. Let's hope Wake is down to Tommy Tissuepaper on the mound and the big bull at the DAP is ready to be pelted.
FSU vs. Miami: As I've mentioned, I'm betting the ACC gets 3 national spots. If Clemson reaches the title game with a win, I think it's us. Playing Miami in the title game, win or lose, would serve us better. It would also be better if the Noles fall. TCU vs. Texas: Holy cow, did anyone stay up to watch the Longhorns come off the mat to oust Okie State last night? Like Wake vs. UVa. they were dead in the water and stormed back. Now TCU has to beat them, twice, to stay alive in the national seed race.
Texas A&M vs. Ole Miss: A&M, I'm convinced, already has their seed locked up.Ole Miss looks good as well, but win here would clinch things. LSU vs. Florida: Both teams probably already have a national berth lined up, so this would more likely be for ranking. But it should be a heckuva game.
