Bogus Smith Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The first mid-season projection of the upcoming NCAA baseball regionals are out. ORU is seen being in a regional hosted by Wichita State with Oklahoma and Sam Houston State. That would be a fun regional to see. https://d1baseball.com/projections/midseason-projected-field-64/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogus Smith Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 Nope, just trolling. Mrs. Smith usually keeps me up to date on what is going on, but thought I would provide the "Breaking News" on this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORUTex Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) NDSU swept Omaha in a doubleheader today, 2-1 (10 innings) and 2-0, and ORU is back in first. http://www.thesummitleague.org/sports/bsb/2017-18/standings With a 2-game lead in the loss column (but the head-to-head tiebreaker going against them), If the good guys can win 5 of 6 against WIU and IPFW, they'll *hold the lead after the first half of the regular season.* (Edited because I forgot they now play home and home series with everyone).

ORUalum Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Look familiar? Baseball America 4/18 projection Arkansas (3) Ok State Missouri St ORU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeagleman5 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 OSU a 2 seed?....and we just whipped them 10-5.....hopefully that win helps ORU's RPI just a little....but I fear the damage has already been done.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORUJason Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 SEC Country has the following 16 teams listed as likely 1 seeds and regional hosts. Florida Stanford Oregon State North Carolina Ole Miss Georgia Clemson Arkansas Texas Tech NC State East Carolina Florida State Duke Minnesota Coastal Carolina Stetson The only team on this list near Tulsa is Arkansas (Fayetteville like last year). The other next closest teams would be Texas Tech (Lubbock), Ole Miss, and Minnesota. Unless we get the Fayetteville regional, we will be traveling quite a ways.

ORUJason Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 The latest projection I could find from Baseball America is 2-3 weeks old (May 9th), but it lists ORU as a 4-seed playing in Fayetteville. 1. (5) Arkansas^ 2. Central Florida 3. Baylor 4. Oral Roberts* It also lists OSU as hosting a regional, but OSU has lost way too many games since then and is not considered a potential 1-seed at this point.

ORUJason Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 College Sports Madness projects ORU as a 4-seed at Texas Tech and the projection is recent (May 25th). 1. Texas Tech 2. UCLA 3. Dallas Baptist 4. ORU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORUJason Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 D1baseball.com has a 2-3 week old projection as well with ORU as a 4-seed playing at 1-seed OSU. However, this is not an accurate projection because OSU is not currently expected to host a regional because they are 1-9 over their last 10 games including a 2 and out in the Big 12 tournament and currently have a record of 29-24-1. Interestingly, when OSU last played ORU (a 6-5 ORU victory), they headed into that game 27-14-1, winning 7 games in a row including a sweep of OU, a win over DBU, and looking like a possible 1-seed and regional host. However, starting with the ORU win (OSU loss) OSU has finished the year 2-10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeagleman5 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Just guessing that the Hogs can't be real happy playing ORU again... Heck, they avoid playing us in the regular season like we have a communicable disease....would love to see the Good Guys take them out....does UA have a stud ace pitcher??...

theeagleman5 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 TheEagleman thinks that we can be very competitive in this regional...ORU only has to travel about 60 miles and our fans should be there....I wonder which starter Coach Folmar will select for Friday afternoon?...I really don't care for the Hogs...plus they won't play us in a game or two in the regular season... What a bunch of wusses.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
