Caught the tail end of this conversation during the Missouri State game, but being a top 8 seed they'd normally get a super regional. I heard that they will be playing theirs at Arkansas? Is this correct? If so, anybody know why?

Arkansas State's stadium must not meet the requirements for a Super Regional.

You mean Missouri St?

Actually Hammon's Field holds 8,000. Missouri State University Official Athletic Site - Facilities

But yes, Arkansas Baum Field holds 10,000 plus. Baum Stadium | Arkansas Razorbacks
Yeah, I meant Missouri St. It's actually quite an interesting amount of criteria a stadium has to meet in order to host a Super Regional.

Criteria from NCAA Bylaw
31.1.3.2
The following criteria are to be used in the evaluation of sites for all competition in NCAA championships: (Revised: 11/1/01, 11/1/07 effective 8/1/08, 8/7/14)
(a) Quality and availability of the facility and other necessary accommodations;
(b) Revenue potential (e.g., a financial guarantee or guideline that ensures fiscal responsibility and is appropriate for the particular event, as recommended by the governing sports committee and approved by the Council;
(c) Attendance history and potential;
(d) Geographical location; and
(e) Championships operating costs.
Additional criteria:
Regarding the super regional tournaments, with the criteria listed in Bylaw 31.1.3, the Division I Baseball Committee also follows the additional criteria below:
1. Super regional competition shall take place at on-campus sites or alternate sites approved by the Division I Baseball Committee.
2. Prospective host institutions must submit a minimum financial guarantee of $35,000, which shall be 75 percent of the estimated net receipts as submitted on the hosting proposal (online proposed budget). The $35,000 minimum applies to both two-day and three-day super regional competitions.
3. Consideration for hosting shall be given to the higher seed, including the eight national seeds, if a suitable hosting proposal has been received (e.g., meets financial guarantee and quality of facility criteria). If the higher seed has not submitted a proposal, the lower-seeded team will host if their proposal is acceptable.
4. If the super regional match-up is between equally seeded teams, the committee shall review the hosting proposals according to the site selection criteria (e.g., quality and availability of the facility, revenue potential and other available accommodations) to determine the host. If only one of the teams has submitted a proposal, that team shall host if the proposal is acceptable.
5. Lights are highly recommended at all prospective super regional sites. These lights should meet the NCAA standards found by clicking on the “NCAA Broadcast Manual and Policies” link at Broadcast and Media Services | NCAA.com
6. The committee will consider previous crowd control and behavior of the prospective host institution

The answer is.......

Missouri St's home field (Hammon's Field) is 'unavailable' for Super Regionals.

The Springfield Cardinals (St Louis Cardinals AA farm club) are scheduled to play Midland there this weekend.

Team Schedule | Springfield Cardinals Schedule

Missouri St met all the criteria to include being the higher ranked seed. They likely didn't bid to host Super Regional because the facilities were unavailable.

That's kind of a shitty deal for MOST. You would think a team's post season run at their Home Stadium would trump StL's farm team. Sounds like MOST needs to re-write their leasing agreements.

Yeah it's good for us but gotta feel bad for them. The ironic thing is the MLB Cardinals' manager's son plays for Missouri State so you'd think they could have worked something out and had the AA team play at Busch Stadium or something since STL is away this weekend.

Fayetteville is going to be insane this weekend with the super regional and Walmart shareholder's meetings going on at the same time lol
