Vanderbilt vs. Texas A&M: 9:30 AM CT on Tuesday in Hoover

We should be safe now regardless of anything that happens in Hoover, but a run to Sunday might be able to get our RPI back in hosting range. We need to start with the Aggies in the early morning though!

What should we expect from Texas A&M?

I would love to see Vanderbilt hosting a regional tournament, as that would increase the odds of VU's winning it and make it easier for local Vandy fans to attend. However, to get there VU would need to jump over 15 to 20 teams. I think we are good enough to win a regional on the road, like last year.

Bubble desperation. They need all the help to make the tournament they can get.

They have the league's best team ERA, but are near the bottom of the SEC in defense.

Offensively, they don't score a lot of runs. They don't steal a lot of bases, and rarely get caught stealing. They are near the bottom of the conference in walks taken, which is either good news for us or we'll be a tonic for what ails them.

Please explain what statistics you use to show that Texas A&M has a great ERA but a bad defense. Are you saying they have a low fielding percentage?
