Baseball America projects FSU as top 10 seed in NCAA Tournament

No. 11 Florida State baseball (36-15, 17-10 ACC) is hosting its rival Miami for the final series of the regular season this week. FSU moved up to third place in the ACC standings after a series win over the Clemson Tigers, and is looking to make another deep postseason run in the ACC Tournament and NCAA Tournament to the regional level and beyond.

Baseball America's bracketology of the field of 64 continues to like their chances to host a regional, as in their rankings, Florida State remains a No. 1 seed, as they have for most of the season. Last week, they were the 13th-best No. 1 seed.

Now, FSU is projected to host the Tallahassee regionals as the No. 9 overall one-seed and would host No. 22-ranked Coastal Carolina, Miami of Ohio, and Holy Cross. Other notable No. 1 seeds expected to host regionals include Florida and Nebraska, whom the Seminoles played earlier this season. The Gators are projected as the No. 8 seed, setting the two rivals up for a collision course in the Super Regional round.

The Seminoles are 32-48 in the NCAA Tournament, and they are looking to win the first national championship in program history. Their season continues on Thursday when they face Miami. Fans can catch that game at 6 p.m. ET on the ACC Network Extra.
