SEC: Conference Does Well in OOC Games

By Jean Neuberger - May 18, 2007

Here's a quick stat for the NCAA Selection Committee

The SEC went the following against the power conferences in baseball, along with the Missouri Valley, one of the top mid-major conferences going.

SEC vs. ACC - SEC 10-9
SEC vs. Big 12 - SEC 7-5
SEC vs. Big 10 - SEC 8-4
SEC vs. Pac-10 - Tied 5-5
SEC vs. C-USA - SEC 11-5
SEC vs. MVC - SEC 7-3

Among the more impressive wins...

Vanderbilt over Rice, Arizona State and Baylor
South Carolina over Oklahoma (13-2) and taking 3 of 4 from Clemson
Florida taking 2 of 3 from Florida State and Miami
Arkansas sweeping Kansas, and over Wichita State (10-2)
Auburn (12th in the SEC) taking 2 of 3 @ Arizona State
Ole Miss taking 2 of 3 from UCLA

So except for the Pac-10, which was a tie, the SEC proved to be strong against the nation's premier conferences.
