It's Christmas time for college baseball teams and fans around the country.
There are plenty of teams around the country that helped their cases for national seeds and regional bids in conference tournament action. There also are those that hurt their chances for at-large bids.
Lastly, there are those teams that essentially had their postseason dreams shattered by a rash of upsets in non-big six conference tournaments.
With Selection Monday finally here and the announcement of the NCAA field of 64 just hours away, we take a last crack in projecting the entire NCAA tournament field.
