The College World Series is down to the final 16 teams with probabilities available on the super regionals at the sportsbook.

The majority of the top seeds still remain so the probabilities at the Internet sportsbook ought to be competitive as 8 teams try and advance to the College World Series.

Thirteen of the 16 top seeds made it through to the super regionals. In fact, there were no surprises as all of the seeds outstanding are either or number twos. The higher seeded team’s home field hosts the super regionals in a best-of-3. Arizona State is one of the favorites to win the championship. In one of the 8 super regional matchups, they will be hosting Arkansas. Arkansas might be in danger, especially if Zack Cox is not healthy, since Arizona State was 34-3 at home this season.

Texas hosts TCU in another of the regions and this game ought to be terrific. TCU has superb starting pitching plus they were 24-7 on the road this season. Texas also has terrific pitching plus they can hit home runs as they set a school-record with 79 this season. Florida hosts Miami and should do well since Miami needed to use top pitcher Chris Hernandez on Tuesday. In addition they do not have Eric Erickson at full power. Florida was 31-3 at home this season.

Coastal Carolina is going to be seeking to make their first trip to the College World Series. They are going to host South Carolina in the regional. This may be a fascinating game to see if Coastal Carolina will take a step up in class. Coastal Carolina might be given problems by South Carolina’s well balanced offense.

Virginia hosts Oklahoma and they’re preferred to advance since they went 33-5 this season at home. They’ve got Danny Hultzen who’s 10-1 this season and they’ve a very well balanced starting lineup. Oklahoma wins with strength as they struck 93 home runs this season. The issue for the Sooners is that Virginia’s Davenport Field is not a home run hitting park. UCLA hosts Cal State Fullerton and it ought to be a fascinating series. Fullerton was 18-6 on the road this year but UCLA has a prominent pitching staff that ought to be the difference.

Florida State hosts Vanderbilt in what ought to be the top game in the super regionals. Vandy was just barely beaten out by Florida State for a seed.

Clemson and Alabama are number 2 seeds and one will be moving on with Clemson getting the home field advantage. Look for a lot of runs to be landed, since these two teams can hit but do not have formidable pitching staffs.

The College World Series will be held from June 19th to the 29th with a game on the 30th if necessary. It’s going to start off in Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha, Nebraska, which has hosted the College World Series since 1950. Even so this will be the a year ago for this stadium.
