And used to coming up on the short end of the score!

Saturday game times (central time)

11:00 am - ODU at FAU
11:00 am - WKU at FIU
12:00 pm - Rice at UAB
12:00 pm - Charlotte at Marshall
1:00 pm - La Tech at Middle Tennessee
USM at UTSA finished yesterday

So my understanding is if FIU wins today then UTSA is #8 seed and FIU is #7 seed?

Correct as FIU beat UTSA in their head to head matchup. And FIU is up 11-2 going to the 8th in today's final game of that series

Standings with Saturday games in progress: FIU/WKU complete, FAU/ODU complete

1 - USM (25-5)
2 - ODU (19-11)
3 - FAU (18-12)
4 - Charlotte (17-12) -- at Marshall
5 - LT (17-12) -- at MT
6 - Rice (16-13) -- at UAB
7 - FIU (15-15) -- beat UTSA head to head
8 - UTSA (15-15)
------eliminated from CUSA tournament-----
9 - Marshall (12-17) -- host Charlotte
10 - MT (9-20) -- host LT
11 - UAB (8-21) -- host Rice
12 - WKU (6-24)


Charlotte leads Marshall 7-5 in 7th
MT leads LT 4-2 in 5th
UAB leads Rice 9-2 in t8If Rice loses they clinch the 6 seed


USM has clinched 1 seed
ODU has clinched 2 seed
FIU has clinched 7 seed
UTSA has clinched 8 seed

Final FAU wins 3-0.

Dawgs have put up 6 runs in the 6th inning and are still batting with 1 out. The rally has put Tech up 8-4.

Raphael Gladu's hitting streak is up to 18 games now!

UAB vs Rice in a lightning delay in Birmingham with UAB leading 9-4 in b8

Charlotte 9, Marshall 5 is now final.
Charlotte with the sweep.
How do those tiebreakers line up for 3rd place with FAU and probably LATech?

Rice is now officially the 6 seed with the Charlotte win.

And if I read the tiebreaker rules correctly then Charlotte's win should lock up the 3 seed for FAU and the 4 seed for Charlotte. LATech should remain as #5 regardless of whether the win or lose vs MTSU.

FAU went 2-1 against Charlotte so they'd win seed 3 if it's a 2-team tie.

Charlotte beat LATech 2-1 (and did not play FAU) so in a 3-team tie it'd still be:
3. FAU (2-1)
4. Charlotte (3-3)
5. LATech (1-2)

Tech decides winning isn't fun. Loses 8-9 to MTSU and loses the series. First series loss since UTSA. Dawgs win 6 series, lose 4.

Tech could be in trouble. Probably need to win 2 in Biloxi.

Hopefully we get Harris/Laws on Wednesday night.
