Tournament Projection

[tarheel0910]

D1Baseball has us as a top 5 seed right now. I think that's pretty fair, but the bullpen has to figure some stuff out if we want to win big.

Agree with your thoughts on the bullpen, hopefully they will improve as the season progresses.

Regional looks pretty good for us, but I'll pass on those potential supers.

Any Super against top 16 seed going to be tough but I’d like to see anyone other then ECU though I think at the Bosh would be to our advantage

 

[kjcooper]

Have to agree with you, hate to be in the bracket with ECU. We do not play well against them, unless as you stated unless it's at the Bosh.

D1 Baseball has UNC the #4 seed with Cornell, Oregon and UNC Greensboro in Bracket… UC-Santa Barbara is the 13 seed hosting Air Force, Arizona and Northeastern

 

[tarheel0910]

I'd be ok with either of those draws.

Anyone know why they play conference tournaments in baseball? Are they money makers? When I look in the stands for a lot of these games I see a lot of parents and girlfriends and a bunch of empty seats. Is this so the conference networks can put on additional programming? The regionals are tough enough on pitching. Adding a conference tournament the week before doesn't make much sense to me.

Why would they not? They play one in every sport. The stands being empty for the first couple of days isn't unique to baseball. Basketball is the same way and the other sports never have many spectators. The problem isn't that they have one, the problem is there are too many teams invited. Eight teams would be enough. Two pools with double elimination. Could do that in a few days.

As in most sports the conference tournament winner get an automatic bid into NCAA tournament

Three seed in this projection. Even if we won the ACC tournament, I doubt we would have been higher, so no harm done.

Not sure I’d really enjoy the Gamecocks coming to Chapel Hill as the 2 seed though

It could be argued that being eliminated early in the conference tournament can assist with pitching staff rest. This is particularly true for the Heels who didn’t get penalized for a quick exit.

Is there a limit during regular season as to eligible players for any specific game? The dugouts are absolutely loaded with kids in uniform who likely will never see the field.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Yes I’m not sure the exact number but each team has to turn in a roster for each series that can change by the week.. The rest of the players can dress and travel with the team but that number is limited as well

No different than football.
