Got in a fight on Reddit with a Florida fan so I did some snooping. Florida's non-conference out of state record is 11-9....over the last 10 seasons.
All of those games are post season.
These dummies are all saying that SEC doesn't inflate their RPI by playing at home because of the weight. Well you do if your home field advantage is above 66%. It's pretty brilliant, all of their losses are contained in conference and their non-conference win % is massive due to playing at home 90% of the time. Those big crowds and lack of travel fatigue apparently don't affect anything.

That would be the SEC/NCAA administrators trying to ensure any non SEC (with a few ACC and Sunbelt exceptions) don't get out of a regional. "If a team is dangerous, we set up a gauntlet." |

"We can't have the greatest college baseball team in the 21st century" continue to be someone not in the SEC? Is that what you are saying? |

That would be the SEC/NCAA administrators trying to ensure any non SEC (with a few ACC and Sunbelt exceptions) don't get out of a regional. "If a team is dangerous, we set up a gauntlet." Really?? So your complaining because you see this team as "dangerous"? I'm pretty sure the committee doesn't see OSU that way. The Beavers better bring their "A game" to get by a very feisty Sam Houston team that played a ton of tough NC games. Plus, don't you have to eventually have to win games vs highly ranked opponents? If OSU is so dangerous, a win @ LSU sets up an easier Super vs the #13 seed Auburn (if they win their regional). Anyway, win games and teams/fans really do not need to complain about BS that is out of your control. But, of course to some on this board... 1) The Pac12 tourney is a chance to finish strong & improve our RPI... only chance to host is getting to the championship game, etc etc, etc... 2) 0-2, pitching shelled... what a dumb tournament, means nothing, we knew we weren't hosting, etc, etc, etc... 3) Oregon and UW do pass OSU in RPI... dumb tourney, cuz they do play well, and in AZ on a rock hard field. Funny all the complaints seems to work against OSU, but, for other teams?! 4) Oregon, Zona reach Championship game, both get in, Oregon's pitching is fairly dominate in winning 4 games, actually do finish strong yet out come the old and well worn reasons they began their program. Like it now has anything to do with winning The Pac12 Tourney. 5) SEC/ACC are favored... although the RPI so touted on this board...the SEC 7 of the top 16, ACC 4... West coast 1 in top 33... speaking of "favored", look at the Stanford Regional!! 6) Did I read... Indiana St should not be a host, it's a joke? The #9 RPI, 42-15, NC RPI 15, NC SOS 5... hmmm, pretty sure OSU fan would expect hosting to be automatic The constant excuses are so worn thin. It's baseball, every team goes through the same gauntlet. Set a decent schedule. Wins games. Pretty simple concept. All the supposed bias spouted here seemed to never have an effect of the truly quality OSU tourney teams. As of now 2023 hasn't proven to be that type of team. As for selections, the Pac12 is the 4th rated conference in RPI... received the 4th most selections. SEC... 10 ACC... 8 Big12... 6 Pac12... 5 Sun Belt... 4 B10... 3 Others x4... 2 each Others x20... 1 each |

a #2 seed in the Wake Forest Regional with Charlotte and Maine. Something to remember for 2024, 2025, etc: While D-1 BB is pretty good at predicting Host sites and the f ield of 64, their Regional Matchup predictions, re-host & #2 seed, are nothing more than guesswork and/or pure hokum.This forum saw discussions of, or mentions of, several different regionals/matchups for the Beavs over that past several days based on the silly D-1 Regional matchup predictions ("The Beavs are going to Wake Forest....or Cora Gables....or xyz756"). It happens every year. And then when you go back and compare the "Final" D-1 Predictions for Regional matchups regarding #2 seeds, with what the Committee issues just a few hours later, it's plain that Kendall Rogers, Aaron Fitt, et.al. are just wildly throwing darts: Of the D-1 BB (16) predicted Host / #2 seed scenarios, as of this morning, exactly TWO were correct.
Namely Campbell #2 in the Columbia So. Car. Regional
and Texas #2 in the Coral Gables Regional. |

The laziest and most wrong bracket ever. |

I was pleasantly surprised to hear the selection show commentators criticisms of the RPI and how it is used so heavily even though everyone knows it's severely flawed. When they tried to corner the committee head on it all they got was the predictable "aw shucks, never really been to those other parts of the country, someone's always going to feel left out" BS.
