Predicting the winner and runner-up of all 16 regionals in the NCAA Baseball Tournament. Who keeps their College World Series dreams alive this weekend?
Last weekend, Memorial Day unofficially rang in the start to summer here in the states and this weekend kicks off the summer sporting season. The NCAA Baseball Tournament begins with the Regional stage, where 64 teams selected to the postseason vie for eight precious tickets to the College World Series. Fire up ESPN+ and throw some brats on the grill – let's preview and pick a winner for all 16 Regionals this weekend.
But I'll already be a slave to two other trendy picks later on. North Carolina is a very good baseball team not getting half the respect they deserve. They finished an astounding 32-2 at home this season.In the postseason, pitching trumps all. And nobody in the country has the collection of arms that Arkansas does, led by superstar Hagen Smith. This year, Smith averages an impossible 17.54 strikeouts per nine innings.
I'm excited to see another installment of Georgia-Georgia Tech here. The Bulldogs took both played games earlier this year, showing off strong hitting and shutdown pitching.Like Georgia, Florida State isn't being recognized enough as a very strong team. Despite getting pasted in the ACC Championship by Duke, FSU is a team really nobody wants to see in the postseason. The Noles complement a dangerous offense with one of the more sound defenses in run prevention .
James Madison appears to be a team of destiny in just about every sport, being the only non-power conference team to make the postseason in football, basketball, and baseball.Oklahoma State drew one of the toughest regions in the tournament. Social media discourse on Monday focused on Florida, a team barely over .500, as flaw and bias in the Selection Committee's process. After this regional, we'll have our answer.
