    Florida the #1 seed goes down and then Bama the 3 seed.

    Caught the end of the Bama game and they lost it because of a very unlucky play. The 3rd baseman dove for a ball in the 7th inning that was curving to foul territory. The tip of her glove tapped the ball while still fair and 2 runs score to take the lead.

    If ULL can win the next game, they probably end up playing Florida again (I am assuming they are just that good that they will win their next 2 games), but then Florida would have to beat ULL twice in a row for a chance to play for the championship.

    Can Brignac pitch every game? What are the rules with softball?

    Pretty sure she can pitch every game and I think she will for as long as she can each game.

    Well then they have a legit shot at winning this thing. Especially if they can beat A&M and then rest an extra day to wait on their next opponent.

    And the Advocate won't mention it at all... Just like channel 2 didn't mention it on the news last night that they beat Florida... kinda lame... LSU gets reported on in Lafayette...

    LSU barely gets mentioned on most N.O. stations. WWL talks about them the most because they are the biggest station. I'm guessing Lafayette stations mention LSU because they reach the Morgan City area where a lot of LSU fans live. So don't get so upset if WBRZ didn't mention it, LSU gets the same treatment sometimes.

    Here's the bracket which don't look to be completely updated. If ULL gets out of that side, I predict Arizona.

    What I enjoyed watching the game, was the UL fans chanting "We eat Gator"... The commentators talked about how good gator tastes but you can't find it in Oklahoma City... With Cajun fans tailgating there (who tailgate just as strong as LSU, just don't have the numbers), there is definately some gator getting cooked in the parking lots...
