Congrats to the Noles, Blue Devils and Tar Heels. Especially to Duke and FSU, who both got it done on the road. I said earlier if the ACC could get 4 teams to advance, then that is a good showing. UofL has the chance to make that happen today. Go Cards!

Regional Winners
North Carolina (3-0): Won Chapel Hill regional in pretty easy fashion.
FSU (3-0): Won Athens regional by beating #4 National Seed UGA twice. Great job by Martin in his swan song as a 3 seed.
Duke (3-0): Won Morgantown regional with ease as the 3 seed.

Still Alive
Louisville (3-1): Won two Sunday to stay alive. Winner take all at home Monday vs Illinois St.

Eliminated
Georgia Tech (2-2): #3 National Seed, but swept by Auburn in poor fashion. Done in by walk-off grand slam on Saturday.
Miami (2-2): They had a shot, but about as expected when you travel to a National Seed (Miss. St).
Clemson (1-2): About as expected for a 3 seed.
NC State (0-2): Disappointing performance as 2 seed in Greenville.

Feel bad for State. Borderline regional host, got swept. FSU embarrassed the conference last year, so I can’t throw stones

Yeah, NC State probably felt pretty good about their chances when the draw was revealed.

But for me I feel most for Georgia Tech.

One strike away from a complete game win over Auburn, and going 2 and 0 in the regional. But instead, give up a 3 run dinger, in walk off fashion.

Reminds me of the Cards in the last couple Super Regionals -- where we lost on a UCSB Grand Slam against our Ace Reliever who was later a first round draft pick. Painful. And then a controversial foul pole/home run loss to Cal State Fullerton. Both Supers at home. Both overwhelming favorites to win ... both painful ass losses.

Cards play at 1:00 pm .... it's on ESPN2, but there goes home field advantage. The crowd will certainly suffer with this game time.


Hoping we can pull it off.

With the apparently legit leaked news about Jeopardy champ James Holzhauer, I don't think I can take these two hits in one day.

4 in to the Supers. At this point all tough match ups.

Florida State at LSU .... tough super, but FSU played lights out in the regional. The Noles could take it.

Duke at Vandy ... another tough super. The Cards tangle with Vandy every year, and have some scars to show it. But Duke made short work of their regional, so maybe they can continue that.

North Carolina hosting Auburn ... Heels hosting, that has to help. Auburn played pretty well though so this will be a fight.

Louisville hosting either East Carolina or Campbell. ..... I have confidence issues with our squad. So who knows. Not having our ace closer for the first two games certainly hurts. Maybe we can overcome. Hoping so.

The LSU Tigers and Noles both had down years by their standards. The Noles have been sunk by mediocre to bad pitching and bad fielding. The good is that this is the best hitting team FSU has had in 10 years (most HRs since 2009), though in certain late season, mid week games the bats went inexplicably quiet.

LSU is baseball royalty, it would be an honor to beat them. MM11 needs just 1 more win to reach 40 in the season, an important streak is on the line.

Love it. Where the hell has all these runs been lately, Cards Nation? 04-cheers

Hopefully, the guys will put away EZU tomorrow and avoid any unnecessary drama and nervousness.

Well done, UofL!!

Pretty impressive group of ECU fans. I don’t recall anyone traveling like that when we were in The Big East / American except maybe Cincinnati. They have a good team. We were lucky to jump on them early. We are going to have our hands full the next two days.

Duke had a 2 run lead on Vandy, but the Dores answered for 2 in the bottom half. Tied at 2 early.


Cards - ECU game moved up to 12 noon tomorrow, in an effort to avoid rain. Not sure that will totally be possible ... the next couple days look pretty soggy.
