Alabama’s series win over Georgia was massive for their hosting chances, and they slide into the top 16 as our No. 11 seed in this week’s Field of 64. The Crimson Tide are 39-13 overall, 15-12 in the SEC and No. 8 in RPI, with a 12-9 Q1 record. If they earn a series win over Florida to end the regular season, top eight becomes a strong possibility, and they’re already in the discussion. West Virginia is still in the mix to host, but their RPI is trending the wrong way. They’re the first or second team off of the top 16 currently.
