Oregon State

Rice
Oklahoma State
Clemson (DK leads the way! )
South Carolina (just a hunch, but rooting for lil' Prepster )

An interesting (to me at least) little tidbit. In my son's 2 1/2 years in college ball, he has pitched against the previous year's national champion and the soon-to-be (that year's) national champion each year. First half of this year's part of that equation already fulfilled (Oregon State). If that holds true again...it would narrow the field to Oregon State, Fullerton, UCLA and ASU of having the best chance of winning it all.

I believe ASU will win it all...they hit the heck out of the ball...and you'd better be ready to hit off some crafty lefties yourself.

Michigan
UCLA
Ole Miss
Wichita State
Rice
OK State
MSU
South Carolina

Now IF those teams head to Omaha, I beleive the most experienced team will win it , again, OSU. Rice, UNC, CSF, Clemson all have returning players, that is what I based my picks on.

Teams with first year players come with stars in their eyes, get blown away by it all. Players returning kind of got the lowdown on what you got to do to get it done.

I remember this from Mitch, he told me they were going to win last year and he was right. They were the only team with returning players, even when coming from behind they KNEW what had to be done. Besides, they have a LOT to prove to everyone.

Hate those crafty lefties.

OSU
CSF
ASU
UCI
Rice
OSU
MSU
UNC

I'll go on the record with
Wichita State (I love UCI but not enough ants in KS)
Oregon State (still the champs)
Cal St. Fullerton (great team plus Roemer)
Arizona St. (I love crafty lefties)
Rice (Owl be baack, and I'll be wearing one of those ugly unis)
Okla State (just plain ugly hats )
Clemson (TPM)
N. Carolina (Prepster)

Karnak sees Rice and ASU facing off for the title, and ASU taking the last two.

Michigan
Cal St.
Arizona St.
Wichita
Texas A&M
Louisville
Clemson
S. Carolina

Michigan my sentimental fav. to go get it all.
A Midwest thingy

Oregon State
Fullerton
Arizona State
UC Irvine
Rice
Louisville
Clemson
NC State

I expect that one of the west coast schools is going to win it again, probably AZ State (sorry TPM, but I won't be disappointed if you guys win)

Looks like I got 7 of 8. Just missed the Louisville-Oklahoma State pairing.

I was 6 fer 8. I wish I hit like that.

6 for 8 here as well

Isn't life sweet

I hope the western teams do as well as us fans. Bkecks, the MOOSE and I are each 7 for 8 and just is batting over 500 too! So much for bias agains the west here...western baseball rocks! (and the predictors ain't so bad, either!!!)

Rice may be favored by many, but I'm looking at 50/50 odds right now that the NCAA championship is going to reside out here somewhere on the left coast for another year.

Just looking at who made it through to the CWS.

Its a great set of teams.

I know there's been disapointment along the way for Many.
And Its seen as unfair
Sometimes.
But all&all this has been fun to see the whole process unfold.
Congrats to the Teams that made it.
