When we played Texas State
They had been the visitors on Friday so they got to be home

Prior to tonight's game
The Ags had been home once and visitors once
USC had been home once and visitors twice
So USC gets to be home team

Tomorrow the Ags will be home because we have been the home team once and USC has been twice

1 seed is home every game. They've earned it. Reward them.

Institute some type of run rule. Playing 3-5 games in 3 days makes it too dangerous for all the teams. If you're down 10 after 7. Call it. Seeing games in the high teens and 20s just puts more arms at risk.

Yes, yelling at clouds. Haha.


Completely disagree on the run rule. But I agree the 1 seed should be the home team in any winners bracket game.


Out of pure curiosity, how many teams have back from 10+ runs in the last 3 innings.?
God,....I really hate the sips!

Don't care, that's not my point. In a best of 3 series I might feel differently, but in a 4 team regional I don't want to reward a team for getting blown out by letting them save 2-3 innings worth of pitching. That's not fair to the other 2 teams in that regional.

And I mean we put up like a 9 spot late against Oregon to come back and win. Maybe an 8 spot against West Virginia in the regional final? Games are never over in baseball.

I remember when it you were the "visiting" team you had to be in visitor dugout. Even if it was your home ballpark.

Yeah. I'm OK with swapping home team rights now that they don't have to also swap dugouts. That was dumb.

And I'm glad they started playing walkup songs. Things are slowly improving.

Next step is to let the host school sell merch!

If you make it home team instead of home site, I never want to hear ond of you complaining about a host site being a "regional worthy" stadium ever again.
