Love playing in a Rustbelt regional at a stadium the coaching staff has dealt with before

Yes and most likely weather friendly, little chance of deep south/Texas/far west potential extreme heat and/or humidty

Please explain ESPN 3.
Do I need to pay extra for this or do I get this since I have cable?

Darn, I think we got a good bracket, was just hoping for something a little closer. Maybe we advance to Supers and can make the trip out to Starkville.

I agree, I was hoping for something in the Southeast as well. Gainesville would have been very nice or even Columbia SC but South Bend is a bit too far for me.

Ok, strategy time.

I’m very confident in both Peterson and Casparius. That said, I think Peterson starts against Michigan, just as he started first in the BET.

In these tournaments, provided you have a solid, trustworthy number two (we do), I prefer saving the highest-ceiling guy for the second game, where you’re either: probably playing the top seed for a championship slot; or playing to stay alive in the first place. Think of 2016, when we were able to start Cate against GT and saved Kay to face number one in the country Florida, in a game we were millimeters from winning.

Where are you located? I am just North of Atlanta. I did the trip to Gainesville in 2016 and Clemson in 2011. Every 5 years is about right so thought I was due this year.

I’ve been in Atlanta for over 3 years and still haven’t had an easily drivable region to go to

I'm near Cocoa FL. Gainesville is only a bit over 2 hours for me. I made the trip for a Vanderbilt game earlier this year. I would drive 10 hours or so but South Bend at 17 is a bit too much.

Yep, thought the odds were good this year. Of the 16 hosts, Columbia, Knoxville, Nashville, Gainesville, Oxford & Starkville were all doable. Plus I figured since we already played at Texas Tech this year we wouldn't be placed there. So it was almost a 50/50 chance. I'll trade it for a Super in Starkville or just perhaps someone knock off Miss St. and maybe UConn could host the Super if we advanced?

Here are the direct links for the two interviews (Penders is definitely worth the 24 minutes):

Small concern: Glancing at Michigan’s 2021 stats, it appears a majority of their top arms - including two of three starters - are lefties (which many of our top left handed hitters have struggled against this year).
