The announcer was an idiot. He kept saying Omaha had been host for five decades. Last I checked, a decade is equal to 10 years, and Omaha has been hosting for 60, which would make it SIX decades.
Why couldn't they have Erin Andrews host the show? They could have made all these mistakes and I think we could have overlooked all those screwups.

I agree that FSU having to travel to UCONN is not right. To hear the commish talk about it being better for college baseball to have a regional in the Northeast is just wrong. This game is about the college kids, and a now these kids at FSU do not get to host a regional simply because it is better marketing to have the regional in UCONN. Just not right!

I agree whole-heartedly that ESPN went through the brackets in too rapid-fire a fashion. Broadcast could have benefited from a certain BA staffer who doesn't rifle through anything.

Florida State splits with Miami and Virginia on the year, wins 3-of-4 games against Florida, wins one of the three toughest conferences in the country and has to travel to Connecticut just because they got swept by Clemson in their last series of the year? A complete and total travesty! Connecticut didn't win their conference tournament and didn't even finish at the top of the Big East. Florida State was consistently ranked in the top 10 until some pitching woes late in the year. Also, think about this. The ACC got 8 bids and the Big East got 3. As a number one seed Florida State has to travel to a Big East school for the regionals, and if they win and Louisville wins, travel to a Big East school for a super regional. How is that fair? Miami should have been sent to Connecticut and Florida State should have hosted a regional and had to go to Gainesville for supers if they won, with the opportunity to host if the Gators faultered. Here's to getting no reward what so ever for a good year.
P.S.- Don't quite understand how Virginia is the 5 seed and Florida is the 3 seed.

espn was terrible during the selection show. kyle p was great as usual, but the espn host knew nothing about college baseball (once called rosenblatt something like 'borenbatt' and continuously referred to each regional as the "region" and also called it the World Series.) he was pathetic. it was a disgrace to have such a terrible host for the selection show.
