Wichita state up 6-3 in the 5th

Looks like we will play Wichita state. WSU up 13-3 in the 6th 

[BrassBulls12]

Let’s hope we found some off speed command. They are good FB hitters

WSU could be a tough game. They are much better than their record indicates and were a top 25 team early in the season.

Yeah Wichita State match-up is the worst possible match-up for us. May I ask you to access the, most likely now, never to be accessed files in your brain for the date of May 11th. If you already deleted those files, and who could blame you, let me reinstate them for you. USF was playing WS in Kansas and it was close for about 2.5 innings with the Bulls down 3-1 going into the bottom of the 3rd. Sugar was on the mound and you can probably already guess what happened, literal meltdown mode. BY the end of the 3rd Shane was done and WS had a 6-1 lead and it never got any better. USF trotted out Hoffman, Burns and Holmes and when all was said and done the Bulls would have needed the football team to come on and get 2 tds and a FG to win the game. All 17 runs were earned. That in itself is nearly unheard of. Additionally, 17-2 has got to be the worst conference beat down I can remember. I remember a worse game against FSU in Tally where we lost like 22-1 or something like that but OOC games really mean nothing in our world. That loss, at minimum, shows what WS can do offensively and defensively. How the Bulls handle that is the unknown, well they be out for revenge? Or well they pretend this is just another strong conference foe and we have no personal feelings one way or another about this team and blah, blah, blah....I guess we'll find out on Wednesday

So my projections below. I've got USF going to Gainesville with Jacksonville and BCC but everything could get odd if the committee decides there should be 3 florida schools hold #1 seeds (UF, FSU, Stetson). You may notice neither Houston nor Wichita St are in, I have both those teams as first teams out, so they would need to make some noise in the tourney.

I think Houston gets in, Wichita St needs a strong conference tourney showing.

[JTrue]

Houston is in. Top 50 RPI and regular season champ of the AAC.

Best case scenario for us would be the 2 seed in Deland.  I would think a win or two at the AAC tourney would keep us outta Gainesville.

Yeah, I agree with you but let's say for argument sake they go out in 2 games in the tourney, with a OOC SOS of 127, i'm not sure thats enough to get in. They would have to hope Troy doesn't win their conference and perhaps they can argue that they deserve a spot over South Miss....idk...i guess we'll see
