Chapel Hill Regional Prediction
This regional could be called the “Appalachian Mountain” Regional. Tennessee will open against Liberty, a team they defeated 7-1 in Knoxville much earlier in the season. UT laid an egg in the SEC Tournament. The extra rest may bode well for the Vols in the NCAA. It’ll probably end up a battle between Tennessee’s stellar pitching/fielding and UNC’s power hitting. You can’t sleep on Liberty though.
