Re: NCAA Regional Sites Announced

I doubt the Heels will be that high, they've really struggled down the stretch. I'm glad to see Chapel Hill got selected as a host site (it's been since 1983) but they've really got to get it going again to have a chance to be in Omaha.

College World Series? Omaha? Ringing a bell?

Oh, wait! I forgot. You wouldn't understand. You're allowed to touch a baseball with your hands and they typically don't kick it.

Guys, keep your fingers crossed for me that UNCW gets seeded out in Chapel Hill. That'd be the cheapest and easiest trip for me to make to see'em.

Holding out hope for my Trojans to be in Tuscaloosa. If so, I'll see every game. If not T-Town, then I'll drive over for one in Atlanta. If not Atlanta, then I'll be relegated to radio.

you got your wish. I might go to the Troy-USM game. Depends on the weather. Have you ordered your tix yet? All that was left when I ordered mine were grandstand seats

Looks like you'll be able to see the Seahawks, they're in Chapel Hill, along with Winthrop and Maine. The way Carolina's playing I wouldn't be shocked to see them head home early. Winthop beat the Heels within the past couple weeks, but that was a midweek game so none of the top pitchers started. I hope Carolina can make a run this year, I don't know when they'll have pitching like this again.

64 team Bracket

OSU is the only 1 seed not to host. After looking at the bracket would of much rather had a 2 seed. ORU has beaten the Cowboys handily twice this year and lost to Arkansas the 2nd game of the year. Then if they win the region they would most likley have to face Clemson.

I was very surprised Baylor got in. If they beat Arizona St, they wont get past Rice.

This is a tough draw for my Hawks. As long as they eliminate at least one school, I'll be happy. Last time they were in the NCAA's, I got to call the whole thing on the radio, including the game where they ended the Tennessee Vols' season. Fun stuff!

Omaha? Is that in Iowa or Nebraksa?
