They were installing temporary bleachers behind the left field fence this morning, between the bullpens and the scoreboard. Not doing that unless we are hosting for sure.

You can see the very top of the temps on the Goss webcam. webcam.oregonstate.edu/baseballI don't know when they are announced, Sunday or Monday. But they would not taking the time, money and effort to install those bleachers unless we know we'll be at home.

Do not necessarily disagree, but I just think it is funny fans spend all of this time debating who will host a regional/ super regional, that decisions are made Sunday/ Monday - but it seems OSU already has been notified "on the down low" - especially since we were considered near the host/ not hosting line - lol

Not much prep time so schools need to get started making preparations. Fans don't need to know early. Administrators do.

Setting up bleachers is not necessarily a guarantee to anything. Could be like a pitcher walking toward the dugout after thinking he just landed strike three on the batter with two outs. In 2016 when we left the stadium after sweeping UCLA there was speculation that we had inside info that we could be hosting. We all know how that turned out.

Regardless of the bleachers, I would be absolutely shocked if we didn’t host a regional. We might be 15/16, but no chance we finish outside that.

I will say seeding can be so critical to advancing. One of the projections I saw had Wake Forest as the 2 in our regional, and it had the Ducks a 3 seed in Oklahoma State’s regional. I honestly wonder if I would rather travel and play in Oklahoma State’s bracket than have a dangerous Wake Forest team in ours? Remember, we rocked Oklahoma State earlier this season, and Segura mowed them down in his second career start. I understand teams can progress over a season, and it was just one game, but I remember feeling very confident that we were better than them after that game (just eye test watching the game).
Wake Forest has some ridiculous pitchers, one being Chase Burns who is right up there with Hagan Smith as one of the best pitchers in the country (he has more K’s than Smith and throws harder). Don’t really love seeing them as the 2 in our bracket.

Hope this is correct. “Guarantee” posts here have a history of backfiring.
