Well, supposedly then the top 8 should be who we expect to see in the WCWS. I can see all of those top 8 teams making the WCWS except Texas. I don't think they'll finish the season ranked as high as 7th.

Was happy to see Hofstra listed- hopefully they can make another run this year(butthey won't surprise anyone this time)
