For mad.The 2011 NCAA Baseball Tournament Bracket.

[Condem]

On this slow sports news day, one of the best things of the whole summer. Omaha's a gas. Virginia's the top seed which means they don't have a chance in hell. Look for the Illini to take it all. http://espn.go.com/ncaa/bracket?id=6607258

1. Uhh.... Virginia won the NCAA Lacrosse championship.

:shrug:

Sorry, but Jim Tressel does not coach lacrosse...... YET!

[El Supremo]

8. That right! There is still...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

9. Heh! The Rockies trailing the Pirates in the Wild Card Race!! Too Funny!!

[bluedigger]

2. Go Black Bears!

[Condem]

3. I can remember the early days of ESPN, bluedigger.

And let's face it. ESPN made the College World Series what it is today. But I digress. Maine was a mainstay in those first years of the televised event.

[bluedigger]

7. They had a good run right after I graduated.

Early mid 80's. Billy Swift was the player of note - had a good career in MLB. They finished (unofficially because there was no losers' playoff) third one year!:applause:

eta: Also Mike Bordick was on the team - not sure if he played with Swift.

4. Hey! Texas and TCU can't eliminate one of themselves this year!

Omaha, here they come!

[JonLP24]

5. Love the CWS

when my team is in it. They're not this year because they cheated.

[SpiralHawk]

6. Omaha has a brand spanking new ballpark in downtown - Ameritrade Stadium

should be a kickass place to play the series...

[JonLP24]

10. Actually Arizona State will host a regional

shocked the hell out of me because I thought they had a post-season ban. 3 Sun Devil teams are playing for a National Championship. :woohoo:

[Condem]

11. Starts tomorrow, Jon.

See if we can keep a running thread going. Man. I love this tournament.

[El Supremo]

12. Which avatar will I switch to?

Decisions, decisions.

[Condem]

13. I'll tell you something about the Longhorns, El.

They didn't make the CWS last year but a ton of them showed anyway. Says volumes about them, I'd say. And, about Omaha.

[El Supremo]

15. Way too many yankees are in Texas.

[Upton]

14. Hmm.. 6 PAC-10 teams...

Arizona, ASU, California, OSU, Stanford, and UCLA..

Excellent opportunity for one of them to take it all...the conference of champions is a bit overdue since OSU's back to back titles in 2006-07.

Only see 1 team from the Big Ten. Last college WS champion from the conference of crooks appears to have been the Buckeyes some 45 years ago (I wonder if they cheated?)...but, you know, I've been assured it's all because of the weather. :eyes:

[Condem]

16. Alright, forumites.

Just got tix for Game #7 in Omaha. Which means I'll take some shots of the new stadium. Because I'm always thinking of you motherfuckers. Yeah. thank me later. Pumped fucking up isn't the word!!

[bluedigger]

17. Still alive!

See ya FIU!

[Condem]

18. They just got eliminated by James Madison.

Damn.

[bluedigger]

19. At least they took out FIU first.

That's pretty sweet!:evilgrin:

[Condem]

20. Illinois eliminates Fullerton.

Very cool.

[JonLP24]

21. I found this CBS stat-tracker last year

It is really neat and no lag and my connection is far from the greatest. It is kinda like watching a game without real players. Not sure if you know about it. It is great to follow games that aren't televised.

Direct link here--http://www.cstv.com/championshipcentral/baseball/ They flash a scoreboard on the right corner and just click on "click here for gametracker" for the game you want to follow.

[Condem]

22. Thanks, Jon.

I'll need that today.

[Condem]

23. Are you shitting me?!?!

4 live games and I'm watching Illinois-Fullerton from last night on ESPNU?? Anybody got anything live?

[JonLP24]

24. Nothing for me

I don't have cable so I'm looking at the scores at CBS. So far I see early big leads. Dallas Baptist is 5-0 in the 1st over Oral Roberts. Connecticut is up 8-1.

[Condem]

25. Even CBS is way behind, Jon.

I've gone to hockey. Fork would be proud.

[El Supremo]

26. 7:00 EDT is the next game on ESPNU.

Hell, even the Stanley Cup is shoved to ALT. I don't even know what channel that is.

On Edit: It's on VS not ALT. And the Bruins are way ahead!

[Condem]

27. Uconn will move on.

For whatever reason the Texas A&M-Arizona and Baylor-California games are delayed. Dallas Baptist looks like they will advance.

[El Supremo]

28. I know! All the remaining games are underway.

:wtf:

And I don't even know where Dallas Baptist is. I used to know about The University of Dallas - a Catholic school.

[Condem]

29. Unacceptable, El.

In this day and age, we should be on top of things. I feel like Lincoln waiting for Gettysburg news.
