| 0:35.7 | Welcome to the Big Betts on campus podcast. |
| 1:15.3 | I'm Mike Calabrese and I am pleased to announce the return of Colin Wilson for our college baseball coverage, just in the nick of time as the 64 team bracket was revealed today. We're going to be discussing seating, dark horses, the aces we're going to ride all the way to Omaha, or at least we're hoping to ride all the way to Omaha, and our picks to win the college world series. But first, we've got to about this selection committee column. We got to have your thoughts, overseated, underseated, snubbed. Where do you start in this process? Or are you already kind of no longer crying over spilled milk and just getting these teams? Look, it's not like I'm going to throw up a big stink about the SEC tournament, how it means nothing in Arkansas had no benefit for running to the championship game because frankly, I don't think Arkansas is going to win the national title, so I'm just bitching in the win. But let's talk about this. |
| 1:19.3 | Why show up and throw anybody that has any kind of substance as a pitcher and get all the way |

| 1:47.3 | They didn't get any benefit from going and making a push in the SEC tournament. |
| 1:52.2 | I could argue a lot of other teams didn't do so well in the conference tournament. |
| 1:56.3 | They didn't get a bump down. |
| 1:57.6 | Other teams did great. |
| 1:58.6 | They didn't get a bump up. |
| 2:00.2 | Dave Van Horn came out |
| 2:01.7 | after the seatings were announced and he said, I don't really know, and that's the Arkansas |
| 2:07.2 | head coach, by the way. I don't really know what the benefit is of playing a conference tournament |
| 2:11.2 | when it has nothing to do with where you get seated for the postseason. And frankly, college |
