Very unusual this year at the CWS in that in all of the first 8 games that have been played, the team that was seeded higher has won every game. A far cry from last year where No. 1 Florida and No. 3 Miami went 0-2 and No. 5 TT went 1-2 (with its win in the elimination game against Florida) leaving no national seeds alive in the final 4.

Let's hope the trend continues in our bracket for one more game to get #6 seed TCU a win over #7 seed Louisville, then let the trend be blown apart in the semi-finals.

OP not talking about betting markets. Talking about seeding. The higher seeded team has won every game so far. If LSU wins tonight and TCU wins tomorrow, we'll reach the national semifinals with a perfect 10-0 by the committee.

Well, perfect only because a regional 3 seed made the CWS in place of the #2 national seed. Louisville was only the higher seed because the committee missed badly on who their opponent would be.

Yes, specifically talking about seeding and with LSU winning last night the string goes to 9-0.

Again, OP is talking about Seedings by the NCAA committee not the favorite in Vegas. Even though Age were favored over us yesterday in Vegas, we were the higher seed in the tournament by the committee.

I realize what OP was saying. One of the replies was talking about vegas, that's what I was referring to cause I'm pretty sure they had LSU over louisville. And aggy was not favored over us yesterday in vegas

I was going on what the announcers said on TV.. I was surprised when they said it, but never followed up to check it. I stand corrected.

Florida was the only underdog per Vegas to win a game so far. 9-1 for the favorites

Seeding wise, the higher NCAA seed is 10-0

I like that TCU is +140 today and that we are "the higher" seed... 6 vs 7
