By Mike Vamosi
Today the NCAA softball tournament moves to the super regional stage with five Pac 12 teams still alive and two hosting this weekend. Here are my picks for this round of the tournament in addition to days and times of the games.
Berkeley Super Regional/Levine-Fricke Field (May 26-27)
1 California Golden Bears (54-5) v. 16 Washington Huskies (39-17)
Pick: California, choose them this super regional right and like the Bears to move on
Tuscaloosa Super Regional/Rhoads Stadium (May 24-25)
2 Alabama Crimson Tide (53-7) v. Michigan Wolverines (42-15)
Pick: Alabama, I had the Tide playing Louisville but still had ‘Bama going to Oklahoma City
Tempe Super Regional/Alberta B. Farrington Stadium (May 24-25)
3 Arizona State Sun Devils (49-8) v. 14 Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin Cajuns (52-4)
Pick: Arizona State, This match-up was accurately pegged and I still like the Sun Devils
Norman Super Regional/OU Softball Complex (May 25-26)
4 Oklahoma Sooners (48-8) v. 13 Arizona Wildcats (38-17)
Pick: Oklahoma, I’ll again pat myself on the back with getting this correct and I’ll remain with OU
Austin Super Regional/Red & Charline McCombs Field (May 25-26)
6 Texas Longhorns (46-11) v. 11 Oregon Ducks (42-15)
Pick: Oregon, Another series I got right and I still like the Ducks to move on against the ‘Horns
Knoxville Super Regional/Parker-Lee Softball Stadium (May 26-27)
7 Tennessee Volunteers (50-11) v. 10 Georgia Bulldogs (44-15)
Pick: Tennessee, Continuing my correct streak I’ll stick with the Vols winning this SEC super regional
Columbia Super Regional/Audrey Walton Stadium (May 26-27)
9 Missouri Tigers (46-12) v. LSU Tigers (37-22)
Pick: Missouri, My picks had Mizzou taking on Texas State but instead we’ve got a future SEC meeting, I still like the host/national seed Tigers to win
Tampa Super Regional/USF Softball Stadium (May 25-26)
South Florida Bulls (48-11) v. Hofstra Pride (41-13)
Pick: Hofstra, I had this being a Florida-Florida State meeting so being wrong I want to take the upstarts from Hofstra to continue their ride
