Autzen Zoo Women’s College World Series Picks
By Mike Vamosi
Today the Women’s College World Series starts in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It largely has a Pac-12/SEC feel to it with a team from just down the road and a newcomer to the event. Bracket one has the South Florida Bulls taking on the Oklahoma Sooners with the winner of that taking on the LSU Tigers and California Golden Bears.
Bracket two has an SEC match-up of the Alabama Crimson Tide squaring off against the Tennessee Volunteers. Defending national champs, Arizona State Sun Devils, will take on the Oregon Ducks. Both teams won their super regional series in three games.
Now onto the picks, which I’ll just play through the bracket.
