Watching a bit of Stanford v UCLA in the PAC12 tournament on a Friday evening. ESPN ran a promo for the Home of College Softball. It went by fast, but I swear one of the clips was of Lolo rounding first base on a home run. Now, can I find it?

Well, Syd appeared twice in the Intro, once with one of her sterling fielding plays.

Phew!! Not going to Norman where Oklahoma is the #1 National Seed.

UCF are going to FlorIda State, the #3 National Seed, to play South Carolina. UCF are the #3 Seed In this pod.

The Shockers are going to Oklahoma State, the #6 National Seed, to play Nebraska. The Shockers, who did not show a celebration, are the #2 Seed in this pod.

Arkansas, the other site in the Shocker-destination speculation, are the #11 National Seed. Oregon is the #2 seed in this pod.


Only two or three team celebrations were not shown. I could put some spin on th Shockers being one of them, but for now, I won't.

Mini Rant - Oklahoma State lost 11 of their last 13 games and was 0-2 vs WSU ... Yet they get to host WSU.

I know we lost our last two... But still crazy when you remove the names and step back and look at it lol.

The current RPI will not be out until tomorrow. When that happens, you will have no quibbles with the Committee's decision. These are body-of-work decisions, not head-to-head decisions.

I think the in-a-funk Shockers got a gift by going to Stillwater. Even then, the Shocks have quit hitting and could easily go 1-2 at their Regional.

Via Twitter, at a restaurant. Probably not ESPN camera friendly.

A nice RH emphasizing the Shocker hitting. Hopefully, they can get that turned around from the last few games, and turned around real soon now.
