Look at that; thru #44, there were 21 Pool A bids and 23 Pool C bids, with 20 Pool A bids to be awarded.

With Post-season conference tourneys, I have no idea how high up the bubble extends. Going 2-and-BBQ in a post-season tourney may destroy your NPI.

I deleted my post. After looking through some previous "votes", I'm not positive the source providing the information are part of any official poll.

Thanks Dick.

I appreciate your re-assessment. With 23 at large bids, we are so deep into the pack, that the bubble teams can run the numbers on that game that they should not have lost and moan all off-season or for seniors, the rest of their lives. It was less objective in the Regional Rankings days, and the  experts at D3baseball.com would have real disagreements with the final 2-3 selections at large. (They were understandable objections, but nevertheless the committee ruled.)
