I agree...I did not want to play them first round. They have much more experience at this than we do. Plus, they have one of the best coaches of all time, he may be 104 years old, but he is one of the best all time.Originally Posted by dawg80

I like the draw of a Rice, we’ve got to win some games, better to do so against better name recognition and a better rpi team...

We've got to win....exactly! And that's what scares me about this opening game. We swept them this year. You gonna tell me you're comfortable with the thought of being 4-0 vs. Rice, in any year. Of course, I hope we are! Love for us to be able to say, hey! we're 4-0 vs. Rice this year!
....beats saying, oh well, we're 3-1 vs. Rice this year.
In C-USA tourney play, they are the gold standard and what does Flair always say?We've got to win....exactly! And that's what scares me about this opening game. We swept them this year.

Weather not looking good for the Mississippi coast into the weekend. A slow-moving tropical system could make things iffy Saturday and Sunday.
According to the last conference handbook I have seen, the highest remaining seed gets the NCAA bid if the tournament cannot be completed by Sunday night.
Does that mean highest remaining over all, or highest and in the winners bracket?
Inability to Play Due to Unforeseen Circumstances.
If unforeseen circumstances makes it impossible to complete a championship game, the Conference Commissioner or designee is authorized to determine which team(s) shall advance in the Championship. If it is impossible to complete the Championship, the Commissioner is authorized to declare the tournament champion and recipient of the Conference’s automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. If the Championship is cancelled prior to the final game, no champion will be declared and the recipient of the automatic bid shall be the highest remaining seed. If only the championship game is cancelled, co-champions will be awarded and the automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship will go to the highest remaining seed.
Rain Conditions.
Every effort should be made to complete all scheduled games in the Championship. The Conference representative and Tournament Director will control the start of games under rain conditions. If rain delays games to the point where the Championship cannot be completed by Sunday night, with no more than four games in a day and a team playing no more than two games a day, the Championship format will change to single elimination.
Good info Frisco. Thanks.
If it can't be settled on the field, CUSA chooses who goes? Looks like UAB should pray for a rain-out.....
Well, it wouldn't be a surprise if they did!
Coach needs to be out of his mind tuned in from this point forward. Whatever he would typically do, do the opposite. Take risks, but not stupid stuff. Guys need to be alert on the bases and not get picked off with 2 on and nobody out. Clean, smart baseball. Surely that’s not too big of an ask.
