Ben Upton and Noah Bieniek build a field of 64 from scratch, and they were joined by full-time Bracketologist, Rocco Miller, owner of Bracketeer.org and it was a lot of fun. We started with the 16 regional hosts and the auto-bids. Then we go to the at-large picture and fill out potential at-large teams from every conference. Next we have to go to the chopping block and establish the bubble teams that we don't have room for. Lastly we filled out the bracket and place teams where they need to go geographically. Hopefully y'all like this bonus episode with a guest who specializes in building brackets for a living. We will be back soon for our regularly scheduled weekend preview episode. 00:00 Introduction and Special Guest Announcement 00:44 Rocco Miller's Background and Expertise 01:59 Bracketology Insights and Committee Dynamics 06:10 Discussion on College Baseball Teams and Projections 16:21 Conference Auto and At-Large Bid Breakdown 01:04:25 Field of 64 Bubble Talk 01:17:35 Placing 2-Seeds Into Regionals 01:25:28 Sending 3-Seeds Into Regionals 01:30:33 What Regionals Should The 4-Seeds Go Into? 01:36:44 Wrapping Up and Reflections
