Not the end of the world, and i guess it's been this way a while, but if the winners of both brackets go through undefeated, you have no games next Saturday or Sunday. Seems kinda odd to me.

CWS, US Open & World Cup all happening this weekend......Party at joeywa's. 1st keg is on me.

and Father's Day when my adoring children return to heap tribute upon me. or not.

actually, if they all chip in and get me a UT CWS t-shirt, i'll call it a win.

I think it's disappointing they paired TTU and TCU in the first round. They could have done a better job than that. I'm certain it's due to seeding and which team beat what team, but c'mon, two teams from the same conference!

Oh, fellas, how many teams from the greatest conference on earth, the SEC, made it to the CWS? What, can't hear you?

Hook 'em!

Thanks, stp, guess the SEC got unlucky in the regionals and super regionals?

i was pulling for La-La last night so the sec would only have vandy.

The slurpfest for the SEC would be excruciating if they had gotten 3 teams to Omaha. wonder how much will be made of the Big 12 getting 3.

AND, as street mentioned, Father's Day, AND my daughter's HS graduation. 

Come on over.  We'll have brisket, country style ribs and bacon wrapped pork skewers on the pit.  Keg of Shiner is still cold.  Party begins Saturday at noon PST.

If you win game 1 and 2 conceivably you could come back with your game one guy on 6 days rest in the pool championship game against a number 5 guy. It sets up very nicely.

The CWS is so unpredictable. I will say that I think the 4 teams with the best odds to win the CWS according to that metric are the final 4 teams that will be standing. 

 

[Matt Cotcher]

The top 3 and bottom 3 are right in line with my thinking. I'd re-order the Top 3 though.

Writing up a preview and will have more then.

Bovada odds

Vandy/UVA 3/1

Texas 4/1

OleMiss/TCU 6/1

UCI 7/1

Louisville 8/1

Texas Tech 12/1

I agree with the idea that Vandy on our side is the competition. But, as always, we will see.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

I'd buy TCU at 6:1 and feel good about it.
