D1Baseball: Texas Baseball projected No. 2 seed, paired with TCU

[Blake Munroe]

D1Baseball came out with their mid-season field of 64 projections and the Horns land the No. 2 seed.

 

The Horned Frogs are 18-10 current (5-4 conf play). Lamar is 17-11 and Saint Joseph's is currently sitting at 16-11.

RPI rankings:

Texas 1

TCU 29

Saint Joseph's 69

Lamar 87

Keep in mind the change this year: the committee will rank teams 1-32, and that ranking will fully determine the 1 & 2 regional seeds. So, if we (as the #2 national seed) have TCU as our #2 regional seed, it won't be due to any geographic considerations, but solely because the committee ranked TCU as the #31 national seed. This is a great change for the top teams (like us). 

FWIW, I'm shocked that D1.com thinks TCU is the 31st best team in the country right now. We'll see how the second half of the season plays out, but as of now, I would LOVE that TCU 2-seed for us.
