re: LSU Softball the 10 Seed

Auburn got jumped by Utah. They kind of got hosed

Auburn's RPI was in the low 20s. They weren't going to host.

All the hosts were in the top 18 in RPI. Central Ark was 16 and got jumped by UGA and Utah. ULL was 11 and got jumped by a mess of folks. They shuffled the numbers around but the only real moves were Bama's gift and ULL's kick in the arse.

Mississippi State didn’t get in?

Cajuns got screwed. And so did LSU by putting us there.

Both teams deserved to host.

To me it doesn't look like ULL wasn't even considered for a host site. They are a 3 seed in our regional I don't think a 3 seed was probably considered to host

Damn. I thought you were talking trash, but UL is the 3 seed in the Baton Rouge regional.

That is wrong ULL is the 2

If Fouts is still hurt, Bama might not win that regional.

C. Arkansas is a really tough 3 seed.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The LSU softball team will make its 24th NCAA Tournament appearance and host the Baton Rouge Regional May 19-21 as the No. 10 overall seed.



The 2023 Baton Rouge Regional will feature Sun Belt Conference Champions, UL-Lafayette, Omaha – the Summit League Champions and the SWAC Champions in Prairie View A&M. The Tigers will take on Prairie View A&M in game two of the Baton Rouge Regional on Friday, May 19 at 5 p.m. CT on SEC Network.



Dating back to the 2015 season, LSU will host an NCAA Tournament Regional for the seventh time over the last eight years, excluding 2020, which had no tournament due to Covid-19. It will be the 12th time LSU has hosted a regional.



The Tigers receive a berth to the NCAA Tournament for the 17th consecutive season and have a record of 81-54 in the Big Dance with six NCAA Women’s College World Series appearances (2001, 2004, 2012, 2015-2017). Head Coach Beth Torina has led LSU to the Women’s College World Series four times, including three consecutive seasons, 2015-2017 – one of two programs in the nation to accomplish that feat in that period (UCLA).



LSU enters the 2023 NCAA Tournament with a 40-15 overall record and has reached 40 or more wins in a single season eight times under Coach Torina. The Tigers have the highest RPI ranking in the SEC at No. 8 and have the nation’s fourth toughest strength of schedule this season.

I think Central Arkansas is probably the #2 seed because they have a top 20 RPI. Middle Tennessee was about #80 and was 6th place in CUSA regular season.
