I have seen every team in the CWS play at least three
times this year.  This is my non-expert guess as to
who will win.

GM 1  Tenn - took the series from UF this yr and
playing well.

GM 2 NU - Pitching depth and enough O.

Gm 3 Tulane - I'm not impressed with Tulane at all.  I
think they are the weakest #1 seed in years.  Rice
should have beaten them.  However, OSU might be happy
to just be there.

GM 4  Baylor - The Horns have been struggling,
especially in the pen.  Baylor may have the second
best pitching/defense in the CWS.

Gm 5 Florida - Gators bats wake up against ASU
pitching.  ASU eliminated.

GM 6  NU - Tenn. ace pitches GM 1 win, I will take the
NU no. 2 pitcher against anyone on the UT staff.

GM 7 Texas - OSU has a great CF and SS, but UT has
more O than their pitching can handle.  Lots of runs,
but UT scores one more than OSU.  OSU elim.

GM 8 Baylor - Baylor's tougher schedule, better
pitching prepare them for a close extra-inning game.

GM 9 UF - Tenn. luck runs out.  

GM 10 Texas - In a rout.  Tulane elim.

GM 11 NU - My "impartial" feeling is that NU has the
best team in the CWS and the best player (Gordon).  UF
has a nice team, they make a ton of errors and middle
relief is suspect.  UF elim.

GM 12  Texas - They will get one from Baylor if
McCormick (sp) is not pitching.

GM 14 Baylor - BU ace on the mound.  Pitching and
better D win.  UT elim.

Baylor vs. NU.  Huskers lose gm 1 and win gm 2 and gm
3.

That is my guess.  Hopefully I will be correct.  I
will be in St. Thomas for a wedding (fellow Huskers)
and will miss the Championship Series.  Poor planning
I guess.
