McNeese, AMCC, and Northwestern will all be 12-12 if UIW finishes off AMCC.  They are all 3-3 in the 3way head to head.  No idea what the SLC next step is in the tiebreaker. 

I think they look at their record against the highest seed until one or more are separated. So they would look at Nicholls, UIW, Lamar. Northwestern is 2-1 versus Nicholls and the other two are 1-2 so Northwestern would be the higher seed.

Then I think the next seed would be determined by the head to head between McNeese and Northwestern. That would be the single elimination game.

Of course who knows I the Southland site is not so good.

Looks like. 4 seed New Orleans won the series vs Lamar and that is only 2 teams at 13-11

Lamar took 2 games in the opening series of conference from UNO.  I get confused with all the times I have looked at things as well.  Really doesn't matter as the 3 and 4 seeds play in the first round. 

Hang in there Spider, I know today's outcomes almost made you smile. You can still complain about the season overall and keep things normal in here.  😀

darn my seedings came out correctly on that Northwestern.

Lamar couldn't have asked for a better day today.

It really all depends who plays well next week. I think any of the teams could win the tournament.

Actually, I expected much more out of this season as well especially from the bats. So I have not been happy with a lot of the outcomes myself.

Dang, you sound like the Spider!  Yes, that was a jab at both of you.

Overall, it has been a bit disappointing, but they do have the talent to win the tournament.  

Personal note.  While the tournament is fun, it is the IMO the worst possible way to determine the conference rep in a 1 bid conference.  Week after week of conference play and then determine the rep with a few days of play is silly even though it has been around and in multiple sports for who knows how long. Again, my basically useless opinion. 

Great day for Lamar and just having a little fun with you guys.   See you all at 2:30 on Wednesday.

I agree with you. I don’t like the idea of the tournament winner outcome either. You play all of those conference games and determine the regional qualifier with just a few tournament games. IMO, the conference champion should get the bid and do away with the tournament ( at least on all the conferences that only get 1 team to regionals)

That was originally known as the "Lamar rule". Lamar baseball and basketball were so good in the late 70s and early 80s that Lamar finished first in the conference standings almost every year. So the SLC joined the bigger conferences with the tournament to try to keep Lamar from getting the bid every year.

Well it looks like Lamar made a safe trip to Lake Charles, however someone forget to load the bats. The pitching was actually pretty good except for the starter, but the hitting stumbled 

As usual Davis teams are now 1-7 in conference tournament play and I look for them to be 1-8 after tomorrow and headed home for the summer

The interesting question is will the new AD make changes in the baseball and softball programs or will they keep Davis and Hooks and continue to settle for poor performing programs

    • Well, the ones who are upset by this are the same ones who can’t define a woman. There was another woman who everybody came down on for hunting. We are a nation of the offended.  
    • For what it’s worth, polling after this came out show her with an 81% disapproval rating.  Only 21% of republicans said she’d be a good choice for veep, and only 28% of self-identified “very conservative” voters said she’s a good option.  Bragging about killing a dog apparently resonates poorly across political affiliations.  
    • They don’t, and they won’t.  May not be an issue in South Dakota, but certainly is on the national stage.  Even my mother in law, who strictly watches OAN and thinks Trump is a great guy who’s never committed a crime in his life is completely disgusted by this.  I know about bad dogs, and don’t have an issue with what she did,  and I’m sure most of us on here agree.  But as is often this case, it’s not going to be our opinions that decide this election.  I thought she might be a valuable running mate that could bring in the female vote, but I’m hoping Trump has the sense to stay away from her now.  
    • I like the approach, here it is, if you don’t like it don’t vote for me, it’s refreshing to see the Ronald Reagan approach. Not every statement needs to be based on a perceived reaction from folks. Don’t think for a minute democrats didn’t have this knowledge, just not the right time to use it, remember Romney and the dog carrier, they knew.  
    • The year after he left DC spell had them boys physical… beat Roschon Johnson and the Indians at home. They were roughing him up all night long.
