What's left in the regional round:

*Duke and Georgia in extra innings of Game 7
*Oregon up 7-3 on Stanford in the 3rd; Ducks have to win twice
*UCLA and UCSB just underway; UCSB has to win twice
*Arizona and Ole Miss just underway; Arizona has to win twice
*A&M and Liberty playing Game 7, starting around 7:00
*Arkansas and Oklahoma State finally starting at 7:15 due to weather (original time 3:00); Pokes have to win twice

Georgia
Oregon run-rule; Game 7 underway
UCLA run-rule
Arizona run-rule; Game 7 underway
Liberty just tied it 3-3 in the 6th
Arkansas up 7-0 in the 6th

And ANOTHER bomb for Liberty. Suddenly up 6-3.

A&M eliminated by Liberty, 6-5.

 

[BigJCy]

First ever #1 seed to not get out of the Regionals.

The question will be who gets to host if it's Liberty and Stanford -- both 2-seeds in their respective regions.

Normally, I think Stanford would get the nod, but they played all their home games in the football stadium this year due to building a new softball facility.

Pretty sure Stanford can't host since they don't have a field.

They don't have an ideal field, anyway.

Welcome to the SEC Conference championship tournament. They liked the first one so much they wanted to do it again.

As much fun as it is in general to make fun of their "It just means more" stuff, they legit do own college softball. SEC softball is fun to watch and I feel like I've seen enough SEC games to name most teams starters.

Oh absolutely. I wasn’t being negative at all with my post. They’ve made the investment and they 100% deserve to reap the rewards.

One thing you have to remember is that the Pac 10 DOMINATED college softball mostly because the western states were so far ahead of the rest of the country as far as youth/club ball goes. The rest of the country caught up to the west coast and that has had a major impact on a lot of schools. Yes, the schools have made major investments too but the player pipeline is completely different than it was 15-20 years ago.
