  1. That seems the opposite of "everybody gets a medal" Auto bids only go to champions. People who finish #1 in their league. My only issue is the weirdness of having that be the tournament champion. That is weird in basketball and even weirder in baseball. But without that I guess the tournaments would be pointless...I mean even more than they already are.
  2. A&M had multiple quality losses last season.
  3. Yeah but he has been sent to the QB graveyard of Cleveland Ohio. A place where youthful potential gets wasted and veteran legacies get tarnished. Baker Mayfield is the only one in 25 years to emerge with a career.
  4. I always hated their little march of occupation during the Thanksgiving holiday. I am perfectly fine with this tradition ending. You know, for the sake of the poor corps turds of course.
  5. Houston Christian is certainly a weak #4 but not the weakest. But nothing weak about Kansas State and UTSA. I don't buy this, but also I have years of experience of tough mid week games against UTSA and hard fought series against K-State. Neither are going to be intimidated by Texas.
  6. Well the pro sports playoffs traditionally didn't need this because they had decently balanced schedules. Traditionally college teams would be radically different with a very regional schedule so you can't just blindly seed by record. Except, obviously, the 1927 Yankees had a big advantage over the rest of the American League by not having to play the 1927 Yankees.
  7. The premier in state SEC program! Now the secondary in state SEC program.
  8. The all Bulldog CWS final.
  9. Yep. Every team has a guy.
  10. Nebraska also sucks though. I hope the Tar Heels win that Regional easily.
  11. You guys act like a #4 has never won anything before. Fresno State won the National Title as a #4 in 2008 remember. Granted I don't think Houston Christian is a Fresno State.
  12. They have some really good players. That wasn't the problem. By the way congrats on the Regional Berth.
  13. https://texaslonghorns.evenue.net/events/BBP Session tickets go on-sale 10am on Wednesday. So I guess I will be here hitting F5 at 9:59 on Wednesday.
  14. Hope we beat them 12-2 again. Of course no run rule in the post-season. Pity I won't know for sure I am going before Thursday. I think that is it. He prefers not to wait around.
  15. Fuck that. Auto bids are awesome. And necessary, otherwise huge parts of the country would be completely ignored. The only part that might be stupid is them going to the tournament winner and not the regular season winner. Fuck Missouri would probably be a 4 without them. "Look at the amazing SECSECSEC teams they lost to! They deserve a bid!"
  16. Not helped by the part where we lost.
  17. Yep. Sent them home 1-0.
  18. UC Irvine also beat us in the opening game in Omaha in 2014
  19. And Vanderbilt gets introduced as the conference champs. Booooo
  20. That used to be true. These days though the west coast schools seem to be having problems keeping the top players in their region to stay home.
  21. They still have to get there.
  22. Dial up Geography
  23. Oh there is Duke. North Carolina must be the baseball capital of America.
  24. Oklahoma State comes back from the dead to be 3 seed at Georgia.
