Let’s talk CWS Regionals

Here in about 15 minutes the host sites will be announced on Twitter by the NCAA. The remainder of the field/matchups will be announced tomorrow on ESPNU. 

Most all signs point to Texas being a host, likely as the #15 or #16 seed. 

I’ll keep y’all updated as these are announced.

I hope to hell it’s announced on something other than Twitter. How juvenile.

Bear, like it or not, the social media thing reaches more people than ESPNU for things like this. It’s not going away. That said, tomorrow is on ESPNU.

Well it did not reach me on Twitter so it sucks.

Nothing reaches me on Twitter.

I don’t Facebook, but Twitter is easy and noncommittal. You just create a handle and follow what you want. No obligation to respond. Pretty good source for up to the minute info.

I'm guessing #1 Texas. #2 seed UH. # 3 seed am. # 4 seed TSU.   Nothing to back this up just a guess !

I would be absolutely shocked to see three other Texas schools in this Regional. That’s not how the committee has worked in the past.  

I would not be surprised to see either Auburn or LSU as the #2 seed in Austin. Also I wouldn’t be surprised to see A&M sent to NC, Minnesota or Corvallis, OR.

You know this stuff better than I do -- really hoping Aggies go anywhere But Austin . Regardless my butt will be in my seat enjoying a Austin regional !!!

College Baseball is a better place when Texas is in the discussion!
