[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 47229, member: 322"] We are currently seeded 3rd in BaseBallDaily projections [url]http://www.collegebaseballdaily.com/2014/05/06/2014-ncaa-regional-projections-may-6th/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CollegeBaseballDaily+%28College+Baseball+Daily%29[/url] I get free e-mails from this site to stay up on College Baseball - they also have a top 30 which we aren't in. We have been second for a while. I don't think this has our win over North Florida included. But anyway, the reason I'm confident is that we have good pitching, fielding and reasonable hitting. We left tons (non-subjective term) of people on base against VT and still won 2 of 3. Another reason is that I watched our team play two days and watched the warm up on the second day.

I think we would have won the last VT game with a few more bunts with people on third. So I like small ball with this team. It's what we are built for - defense first and offense second.
