I want to reward them for actually winning in those conferences, as opposed to Baylor and OSU bringing their best stuff and consistently losing in their conferences, yes. I would also personally favor Dallas Baptist, Tulane, and RI in a three game series against OSU and Baylor, as the teams were playing pre tournament. Not by much, but with parity in college baseball I give the much more coherent team the advantage if there isn't a huge talent gap. (Which there isn't between said teams.) So it isn't so much that I only think its a reward, I would legitimately think those teams are better.

Arkansas takes a 1-0 lead against a FSU team with an impressively noisy crowd. Good to see the rest of the nation starting to give college baseball a little bit of that college football atmosphere.
