Should College Baseball Change The NCAA Tournament Format? & RPI Bingo - Weekend 12 Preview

The 11.7 podcast crew (Jack, Noah, Dimitri, and Ben) opens with no plan, plugs Homefield Apparel, and dives into “RPI season,” joking about teams canceling midweek games to protect their resumes while tracking an RPI Bingo card (including canceled games like UNC–Queens and Oklahoma–Texas Tech). They recap midweek results and moments such as Coastal Carolina throttling UNC, UCLA beating UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine upsetting USC, Texas winning on a walk-off two-run homer, Oregon ending Gonzaga’s 14-game streak with a nine-pitcher bullpen game, and Nebraska walking off Kansas State. The group riffs on social media delusion, broadcast quality issues in Ole Miss–Mississippi State at Pearl, and debates potential NCAA baseball tournament changes, strongly opposing expansion or altering the current format. They finish with Weekend Series Pick ’Em selections, highlight disagreements like South Carolina at LSU, and set an Uber Eats bet on that series. 00:00 Cold Open Chaos 00:24 Sponsor Shoutouts 01:35 RPI Bingo Season 05:51 Open Dates Banter 09:17 Calling The Bingo Shot 10:42 Midweek Recap 14:16 Fanbases And Rivalries 23:54 Kentucky Stock Pile On 32:16 Dont Touch The Tourney 33:31 32 Hosts Pros And Cons 43:20 Reseeding And TV Matchups 47:32 Rivalry Omaha Dream 49:53 Super Regional Seeding Talk 50:16 Banter and Bullying 51:54 Nerd vs Dork Debate 53:11 Weekend Pick Em Setup 54:41 Standings and Uber Eats Bet 57:47 LSU Stock Hot Take 01:00:26 Creighton vs St Johns Picks 01:02:53 TCU vs Oklahoma State Picks 01:06:54 Southland Showdown Lamar vs SELA 01:10:47 OVC Rule Never Fade SEMO 01:13:21 South Carolina vs LSU Chaos 01:27:34 UCF vs Arizona State Finale 01:30:58 Locking the Bet and Sign Off
