At noon today, the entire field of 64 for the NCAA baseball tournament will be announced.
Our last projections correctly predicted 13 of the 16 teams that were awarded regionals. Now, we’re taking one last crack at projecting the field. If things shake out the way we predict, the Gamecocks will see some familiar faces in Columbia and could get the chance to exorcise some old super regional demons.
Note: National seeds are bold with their seed in parentheses. Conference champions who earned automatic bids are in italics. Projected super regionals are paired together.
