This is from the Southern College Sports website. I sure hope he is correct!

South Alabama, champions of the Sun Belt conference, come into South Bend as the number one seed. They have posted very impressive conference and overall records as well as a strong RPI. Notre Dame, the host team and number two seed, was the champion of the Big East, and although their RPI is the lowest of any host team by far, the Irish have an impressive overall record this season. Ohio State, a team that also has NCAA hosting experience, had a somewhat disappointing season in 2002, which is shown by their low RPI rating. However, they still finished the season second in the Big Ten. Kent State was part of the four-team regional in Columbus, OH a year ago and are back for a return trip to the regionals. The Golden Flashes finished second in the MAC and actually have a better RPI than Ohio State, the three seed. They would be my pick for the potential surprise team in this regional. I think the Jaguars of South Alabama will go on the road and win this regional to advance to the round of sixteen. I would place the other teams in this order: Kent State, Notre Dame, Ohio State.

Here are the RPI's for the South Bend Regional:

#1 seed South Alabama - 18
#2 seed Notre Dame - 44
#3 seed Ohio State - 94
#4 seed Kent State - 80

If the RPI means anything, we should be able to win this regional.
