2026 NCAA Baseball Regional Picks + Omaha 8 Snake Draft For Cash

The 11.7 Podcast crew previews the NCAA baseball postseason by announcing a Homefield Apparel sponsored competition using a 16-team snake draft to see who can get the most teams to the College World Series and then they will document how the cash prize is spent in Omaha. They promote the $10 College Baseball Insiders bracket challenge, then draft their teams, recap the undrafted schools, and discuss their draft strategy afterwards. Using Dimitri’s detailed regional chart (records, RPI, SOS, hitting/pitching stats), they begin regional-by-regional winner and runner-up picks, noting perceived soft seeds, upset possibilities, and betting odds, with in-depth banter on some tough regionals to pick. Dimitri leaves for his Championship Softball game after making additional regional picks, his Omaha 8, and title pick. Ben and Noah finish the remaining regionals, then each selects super regional winners, and a national champion. They close with plans for live shows during regionals and by plugging the Homefield x 11.7 Diamond Den in Omaha.
