 Baseball America listed the top 8 hosts as underdogs as hosts, and both Coastal and So Miss were on the list.
If i wasn't going on a golf trip Monday I'd be down in MB. It's a great regional team wise.

I can see Florida being a favorite, as well as Alabama. Home field should help the Sunbelt teams and perhaps give them the edge?

It's going to be fun. Coastal has played the big boys all year and played well. Don't think the stage will be too big. Why do I feel ECU might be getting hot at the right time?

If the one seed has three good pitchers it's tough to unseat them in a format in which #2 and #3 are high quality teams.

The one seed gets to save their best pitcher for the second game making it very tough to overcome them for the weekend.

Florida takes down ECU then CCU beats FL, forcing them to play each other again and needing to win twice vs. CCU.

CCU and USM do not have an easy bracket that's for sure.

Feels like Clemson, Ole Miss, FSU, and UNCCH got favorable draws.
