I think the Ducks can beat UCONN. I sure hope so because my wife went to UCONN 8-)

Congrats to the ducks for making it to postseason play. Quite an accomplishment for a program in only their 2nd season. Hopefully these games are on tv.

Anyone know any good sites for a scouting report on the teams in the region the ducks are in?

That isn't a scouting report, but it does have the rosters, stats, records, etc. I don't expect the ducks to win the region, but it's going to be fun.

Am I wrong here, or is the ducks region the only region where the #1 seed isn't hosting a regional?

Yeah it is. Kinda weird that the host isn't the #1 seed. Oregon hurt themselves by losing those last few games. Cal got the #2 seed in the region that Oregon was projected to be in by a lot of experts until their loses to end the season. Too bad Oregon wasn't able to get into one of the easier regions. Regardless of what the Ducks do it was a great year, I am excited for what is in store for the future of Ducks baseball!

I'm actually excited to be in this regional. Of course it will be a battle in any region really, but at least we aren't up against a very hot Cal St Fullerton, or up against Texas or a North Carolina team that is always good this time of year. Only thing is, it's a long trip from Eugene to Connecticut.

I was really hoping for the Fullerton regional. Anderson and McGough really had them guessing earlier this year, and New Mexico/Minnesota? Meh.

Did anyone notice that Oregon and Oregon State travel the further than any other team in their regionals. OSU is the only one in their regional that isn't from FL. Oregon is the only West Coast team in their. It's that the Oregon schools have to travel the furthest on all the Pac-10 schools.

Plus, what exactly did Cal do to deserve a #2 seed? Yes they beat Oregon 2 of 3, but they were 2-8 in their last 10 games. Their overall record wasn't nearly as good as the ducks either. I would like to see a lot of those other #1 and #2 seeds play a full season in the pac-10 and then see what their record would have been.

I also don't get why Cal is a #2 seed. They didn't look all that impressive in Pac-10 play and struggled mightily down the stretch. Oregon was more worthy of a #2 seed but I think they can do major damage if the pitching is on. They'll be a #3 seed that nobody wants to face.
