Oklahoma is undefeated at home and the world series is in OKC. They also went through the conference regular season and Big 12 Championship without a single loss. OU has the pitching once again to get it done. I think the Sooners 3 peat.

3 Supers are Pac12 vs SEC.
2 Supers are SEC vs SEC
1 Super is Pac12 vs Pac12
1 Super is ACC vs SEC
1 Super is Big12 vs SEC

regional.

Auburn at the Fla State regional

Ole Miss at the Arizona St regional

Miss St at the Arizona regional

I'm quoting myself for a reason.

The WCWS is now set.

4 PAC12 teams
2 SEC teams
1 Big12
1 ACC

There were 8 super regionals and the SEC lost 7 of them.

Only 2 SEC teams advanced and they beat other SEC teams
to do that. I guess they could argue that the only reason the
other 2 loss was because they were playing better SEC teams
or we might argue that the two that advanced, only won because
they were playing SEC teams.

The only other loss in a Super was from the Pac12 and they (Ariz))
lost to another Pac12 team.

In the NCAA's this year...
Okie has sent 2 SEC teams to the house.
Ariz St has sent 2 SEC teams to the house.
Fla St has sent 2 SEC teams to the house
Oregon has sent 1 SEC to the House
Washington has sent 1 SEC team to the house
Arizona sent 1 SEC team to the house

Looks to be a pretty even event.

OU has a great team but running through the Big 12 isn't the same as playing in the PAC or SEC.

Half the WCWS field will be PAC 12 teams. So much for “the SEC could get 7 teams to Oklahoma City!” talk.

But I would say the 2 odds on teams to win it are the same 2 that have been winning it the last several years and neither team is from the Pac.

You might be right but every single PAC team looked pretty impressive in the Supers. While Florida needed multiple bouts of luck to advance past A&M.

I’m assuming you’re talking about Florida and Oklahoma.

It's nonsense talk. Just as it is nonsense that a 9th place team
in a league got to host a regional.

\Softball and baseball only seed 16 teams. Then they do a lot
of shuffling with everybody else in a region. The NCAA foots
the bill for travel and lodging and that figures into how they
assign teams. The NCAA has a 350-mile rule, where they will
furnish BUS fare for teams, but they won't pay for air travel
unless it is over the miles. Which is why some regionals are
much tougher than others. They try to put as few teams as
possible on airplanes. Not only that...everybody doesn't stay
at a Hyatt. That is determined by your seed in the regional.

Being a host is a powerful advantage.

Teams have learned how to handle Barnhill. Just make her throw
it across the plate and don't chase all of her stuff out of the zone.

Really bad call at 3rd base might have cost ASU a ralley in the 7th. Oregon wins 11-6.

Oklahoma’s pitcher looks like Rosie O’Donnell in A League of Their Own.
