I think we will get handpicked tough opponents for our Regional no matter what. Just like FSU and the Gatas will be handed the biggest duds they can find, we will get at least two dangerous teams.
This is definitely true with FSU. The selection committee has been trying to get Martin a national championship for years. The head of the committee one year lived down the street from Martin. I know that because my parents lived down the street from both of them as well. That was the year that FSU got Notre Dame for Supers because ND beat South Alabama. (and then of course ND beat FSU but dang that was a road that some high school teams could have taken to Omaha). As for UF, the same hasn't been true. I don't think the committee has done them any favors necessarily. FSU has been absolutely ridiculous with the hookups. Even look at last year, FSU gets Indiana in Supers. Indiana ended up being pretty dang good but we are talking about a northern Big 10 team who has never been good. These guys had no experience. Didn't make the postseason the year before I don't think. And then of course they beat FSU in Tallahassee. Cannot stand Martin and his show that he puts on for the media. The guy is a jerk. Sorry. Rant over. I am just tired of seeing South Alabama, Troy, UCF, and Stetson be FSU's road to Omaha.
