Seems kind of odd we're almost 30% through the regular season in baseball and the format of the conference tournament hasn't been announced.

We stand a much much better chance being a multi bid league in baseball. I strongly support only 8 going to baseball tourney. It gives teams games vs at least average Belt teams in the tourney and hopefully will get us more teams in the tourney

Fewer games would save the pitching staffs a bit too.

They were advertising next years Sun Belt basketball tournament at the baseball tournament in Pensacola this weekend.

That's only questionably a good thing though.

Saving pitching opens the door for upset tourney winners. The longer a tourney goes usually the more likely the better teams, with the deeper pitching staffs, win. It's why the coaches from the top teams always throw a fit when bad weather sometimes re-arranges these conference tourneys to single elimination. They know they have a better chance of winning a double-elimination format.

That's really good to hear that the city is already promoting it. Hell of a lot more than NOLA did.

I think this is great news! Hopefully it'll do well.

I am pretty sure the NAS Pensacola is still limiting access to the museum since the shooting. Right now it is military I'd and guests only.

Hopefully that changes soon. That museum is awesome

Here's the bracket.

Thanks!

Almost like a soccer tournament with a group stage and a knockout stage.
I don't hate it.
