Congratulations to Stanford for being the first team to secure a spot in the College World Series. Seven teams could make it in Sunday and at least three will clinch a spot.

Sunday's menu (all times PT)

10 am - Wichita State plays #4 Florida State in Tallahassee with the winner moving on to Omaha.

10 am  - Coastal Carolina needs to beat #2 North Carolina in Cary to stay alive.

1 pm - North Carolina State and #8 Georgia play in Athens for a spot in the CWS.

1 pm - #7 LSU was clobbered at home by UC Irvine, 11-6 in the first game and must win this one to extend its season.

4 pm - #1 Miami and unseeded Arizona play their decisive game in Coral Gables. Arizona won the opener, 6-3, and Miami won the second game, 14-10.

4 pm - #6 Rice gets to go to the Cornhusker State with a win at home against Texas A&M. The Owls won the first game 9-7

7 pm - #3 Arizona State can finish off Fresno State after winning the opener 12-4. This game will be in Tempe. The Sun Devils are still undefeated in postseason play in games involving a ball and bat.

Any excitement for the Croatia/Austria match for the Euro?

I would be more excited if the Croatians were in full checkerboard.

If you're following online, one of the NCAA.com brackets has the home and road teams in Tallahassee inverted. Florida State is the road team and is beating Wichita State badly.

And NCAA.com has fixed that mistake.

I thought you didn't mention that Tucson school by name, yet there it is in your précis about the Miami game in Coral Gables (and sheesh! Talk about a non-neutral neutral site!).

The Chanticleers run in the postseason is not going to end well.

6 Ah, I missed the memo. 16 freakin' walks to Miami yesterday, and they still only lost by four runs. What coulda been!
