Morning Links 5/9/12

Good Morning! If anyone was paying attention yesterday, the Big West might have some potential big news coming up...but we won't know until next week, at least.  Here are some links:

Big West Baseball goes 0-fer in Tuesday's mid-week action
UC Davis fell to Nevada 9-8 after coming back from an 8-2 deficit, USF beat Pacific 5-2 and Anteaters lost to USD 4-1, ending their 7-game win streak.

Big West sends two teams to the NCAA Regionals
Conference champs UCD enters the Stanford Regional as a No. 13 seed and LBSU enters the Athens Regional as a No. 7 seed (Athens, Georgia).

ESPN3 to broadcast the LBSU-Pacific Doubleheader
Do I really need to tell you to go watch?

No. 23 Aggies enter NCAA Regionals as a No. 8 seed in West Regional
The West Regional is in Erie, Colorado.  Top 8 teams of each regional qualify for the national finals at the Vanderbilt Legends Club.

Hawaii might be fine with BSU's inclusion because of travel subsides issue (Subscription Access)
Apparently, their travel subsidy doesn't figure for any new Big West teams joining.  This won't have any effect on a final decision, but it is interesting nonetheless.

As a final note, this is my own opinion: if any of you caught the "Ban College Football" debate, both sides were obscenely off.  It resolves nothing, and it solves nothing.  Bissinger and Gladwell went more on an anti-football propaganda, while Green (who did fairly well) and Whitlock provided poor arguments for keeping football.  I would like those 2 hours of my life back after hearing such stupidity, thank you.
