NCAA Baseball Tournament: Predicting the winner of all 16 regionals

The full NCAA Baseball Tournament bracket has been set, and it's time to predict the winner of each of the 16 regionals.

1. Oklahoma State (11)
2. Nebraska
3. Florida
4. Niagara


Florida making the tournament has drawn plenty of criticism, but now that they are here, they are capable of making some noise. That doesn’t mean that they will, though, and they don’t have an easy matchup against a strong Nebraska team. Both Oklahoma State and Nebraska have strong pitching staffs, and for that reason we predict them to meet in the regional final. It should be a good battle, and perhaps a low scoring one, but we’re going to ride with Nebraska.

Prediction: Nebraska over Oklahoma State

Looks pretty damn good for only having 2 starts in AA.

Dude why are you in this thread?

Because I’ve watched basically every Husker baseball game & went to the majority of the home games? I can still recognize college sports aren’t even close to the level of skill and athleticism as pros.

Yep. Strider was barely AAA and same with Michael Harris. We've gotten lucky with some of the young guys called up. Hell, I watch Vaughn Grissom play single A in my town and he was called up 3 weeks later as well.

Fuck. Gave up a three run jack. Had a shutout into the 5th.

Why do you feel the need to shit all over college sports if you spend so much time watching them? I don’t think anyone has claimed that college players are better athletes than the pros, so it’s an irrelevant straw man argument.

Couldn't find the bunting stats, but I would venture to guess there's an average across college baseball around 2 bunts per game. Personally if I were a college coach, I would bunt a bit less than some of the current coaches do (reserved for only against top pitchers in mid-late innings in a 1 or 2 run game).

Also, one of the most exciting plays in sports is a suicide squeeze.

I watch nearly 150 MLB games a year too. Both are good for different reasons. Baseball is just awesome.

I hate when Bolt bunts. Ben Columbus at the plate with two on and one out and we’re suicide squeezing…. 😬😬😬

That being said, after watching so many college and high school teams fuck bunt coverage up I see why they do it.

UCLAbia won a natty as a bunt heavy offense a few years back. At this level, the more you can get guys moving in the field, the more likely you are to win.

I see the logic behind why some teams decide to do it at the college level and below. I think the analytics at the major league level suggest you shouldn’t do it.
