usc will shut ga down in game 1,don't look at lines in college like pro.
one thing i know and know good is college baseball,i still do scouting for a couple sec teams and miami, i saw alot of the teams out west for my friends back in the south.
miami will win,cal st.fullerton, the best game will be the tulane game they have 7 top pitchers,if they can get by cards they will be in very nice shape.
the top 2 teams to win it will be miami good pitching,great hitting and solid d,usc #1 and 2 pitchers might be the best in the country. next 2 would be tulane and fullerton.

Dawgball I've been all over www.ncaabaseball.com No pitching lineups as yet.

Proline: Yes they start on Friday. Just looking for early info as I've never capped this event.

Unfortunately, i have to agree with Fletcher here and say my Dawgs are going to get killed. They made a ton of bad defensive plays in the FSU series.

Their bats should not be as effective against USC's incredible pitching staff.
