Stanford Regional Odds
Welcome to the Stanford Regional, where the Cardinal scored 153 runs in conference play at Klein Field versus just 97 runs on the road in the Pac-12.
Teams traveling out west for this Regional will have to hit the ball, as Stanford mashed more than any team in the nation when it comes to home games. The Pac-12 champions swept the conference tournament and moved into the No. 2 overall seed, paving a path to avoid Tennessee until the College World Series Championship round.
First, Stanford will be heavy favorites against a Binghamton team that won the American East.
Joining Stanford in the winners’ bracket on Saturday is the winner of UC Santa Barbara and Texas State.
The Bobcats are the more proven commodity with an RPI of 26th and a stout 18-5 record away from San Marcos. Zeke Wood is projected to be a small favorite over UC Santa Barbara no matter if Jaykob Acosta or Mike Gutierrez gets the nod for the Gauchos.
No matter the winner of UC Santa Barbara vs. Texas State, the Cardinal are projected as -340 favorites at a minimum over both teams on Saturday and in the Sunday championship round.
Stanford has value through -180 considering the moneyline spread projections throughout the region.
Pick: Stanford -155
