NCAA Regionals Open Thread
Your humble correspondent should be here most of the day Sunday, continuously updating the board, who's advancing and who's eliminated. Five of the remaining teams -- LSU, Florida, Ole Miss, South Carolina and Arkansas -- are in very good shape. Georgia and Vanderbilt are in trouble.
To view or listen to your team's game:
--Go to http://www.ncaa.com/brackets/2009/ncaa_bracket_DI_baseball.html.
--Select the regional.
--Select the game you're interested in.
--See if there is a "watch" or "listen" icon next to your team's name. Or the other team's.
--If there are no icons, use GameTracker. There's no sound or actual video, but you can see what happens.

Bottom 2nd: Southern 2, LSU 0
Bottom 5th: Georgia 10, Ohio State 2
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
OUCH
With the exception of Georgia, the SEC isn’t faring too well in these early games.
LSU pulls out the 10-3 victory
Arkansas over Washington State by the same score
Vanderbilt falls 5-4 to Middle Tennessee
South Carolina crushing George Mason, 9-3, Bot 7th
Georgia and Ohio State stalled at 10-2, Bot 5th with a lightning warning
Alabama, down 10-6 against Oklahoma, is about to lose
Florida and Ole Miss later
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
USC winning so far...
The South Carolina vs. George Mason game is in a lightning delay in the bottom of the seventh inning of the NCAA regional at East Carolina. The Gamecocks are leading 9-3.
http://www.leftoverhotdog.blogspot.com
game on in greenville
after a 80 min rain delay…USC is winning 11-3 in the 8th
http://www.leftoverhotdog.blogspot.com
And the Gamecocks close out the 11-3 win
Going into the 7th in Tallahassee, Georgia up 11-2
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Final score in Georgia's favor: 24-8
Florida edges Bethune-Cookman, 8-7.
Ole Miss 8, Monmouth 1, as Pomeranz pitches a gem.
SEC goes 6-2 on the day.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
By the way . . .
. . . although Florida State is looking better and better after being tied with Marist at the midpoint of the sixth inning, that game is still going on, so Georgia’s Saturday opponent has not yet officially been determined.
Seminoles 13-4 in the middle of the eighth, if anyone cares.
Go 'Dawgs!
That's odd
When I looked — before your comment posted — I thought it showed that FSU had already won.
Well, in any case, it turned out to be true, so a bullet dodged. I’ll keep a closer eye on the CBS site in the future to see if there’s some sort of glitch.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
USC winning vs ECU
2-0 in the top of 5th this is the winners bracket game.

The good news : Florida, Mississippi and South Carolina have advanced to regional finals.
The so-so news : Vanderbilt and Georgia are in the second game of the losers’ bracket.
The bad news : Alabama is done.
As I write Arkansas is hammering away at host Oklahoma, looking to advance to the regional final; LSU and Baylor are locked up 2-2 in the ninth.
(Meanwhile, in the women’s tournament, UGA survived two elimination games today to move on to the semis to face Washington; Bama crushed Arizona earlier and now faces ASU, with the winner taking on Florida. That’s right – the SEC could have three of four semi-finalists…)
SEC has three of four softball semi-finalists
As for the men:
Alabama is the only team that’s done.
As peachy rex noted, Georgia lost in what was a good game until the 8th inning. Vanderbilt clobbered Indiana to advance to a second elimination game.
Florida, South Carolina, Arkansas, Ole Miss and LSU win and get to wait for their opponents to get out of the loser’s bracket.
Overall, a good day for the conferece at 6-2.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Texas and BC, meanwhile, go into the 23rd inning
It’s 2-2. The game started at 7 p.m. ET

Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
All the games are on the Web
But it’s done. The Longhorns won in 25.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Georgia gets a man on in the 5th, but strike em out, throw em out DP ensues
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Lewis homer for UGA in the 6th, it's 7-6 Ohio State going into the 7th
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
And so ends the 2008-'09 scholastic year
What a crummy, crummy, crummy, crummy, crummy, crummy, crummy, crummy year for University of Georgia athletics . . . at least in sports involving players with Y chromosomes.
Go 'Dawgs!
Lunch and a couple of errands before locking down for the night stretch
Will return shortly to update the Vandy/MTSU game.
From 5:30ish on, we’ll be going without interruption. Should be fun.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
"It might not be much consolation"?
It is absolutely 100 per cent consolation for Bulldog fans.
Go ’Noles!
Go 'Dawgs!
Thanks
Losing to a legitimate baseball program like Florida State, I can take.
Losing to a Big Ten team, for crying out loud? That’s just shameful. . . .
Go 'Dawgs!

As much as it sucks to be a Georgia fan right now . . .
. . . there’s something to be said for the fact that the Diamond Dogs, who had significant contributions from six freshmen position players and three freshmen pitchers, made it to the tournament despite facing a schedule that included Arkansas, Clemson, Florida, Georgia Tech, Louisiana State, South Carolina, and Vanderbilt, all of whom are looking varying degrees of pretty dadgum good right about now.
That’s just a little something for the folks who want to look on the bright side, which I don’t.
Go 'Dawgs!
