    Burkie and Roons open by apologizing for being off their game on the previous podcast, then refocus on 2026 “Squeeze Play” takeaways from the NCAA baseball regionals. They highlight the paradox of seven SEC teams reaching supers alongside two four-seeds (Little Rock and St. John’s) winning regionals, plus standout winner-take-all results like Oklahoma and Troy winning game sevens and UCLA’s collapse. They recall memorable atmospheres and storylines, including Kentucky vs. West Virginia, Lincoln’s extra-inning battles, Alabama State vs. Oklahoma State, and cold-weather teams surging late like Milwaukee and St. John’s.

    RPI-Motivated Cancellations [D1 Daily]

    On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons discuss college baseball teams canceling midweek games late in the season due to fears of negative RPI repercussions. They debate the sport’s continued reliance on a metric many consider flawed and point to additional tools, such as Diamond Sports Rankings (DSR) and KPIs, to reduce outlier-driven decisions and avoid penalizing teams for playing. The conversation touches on scheduling strategy—front-loading midweeks, resting late, and the strain of end-of-year fatigue—while noting examples like Ole Miss playing UT Martin and Georgia going without midweek games since late April. They also address how cancellations impact fans and families and call on the committee to credibly use multiple metrics.00:00 Welcome and Sponsor01:30 RPI Debate Returns04:53 More Metrics: DSR & KPI08:12 Late Midweek Scheduling13:41 DSR Benefits15:47 Fixes and Final Thoughts17:54 Wrap UpFor athletes and sports programs of all levels, AstroTurf has managed the entirety of the synthetic turf manufacturing process for decades.

    ABS In Hoover: Is College Baseball Ready? [D1 Daily]

    On this episode of D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons react to news that the SEC will use the ABS challenge system for balls and strikes at the SEC Tournament in Hoover. They discuss the specific rules (three total team challenges that are retained if successful) and whether it will affect umpire strike zones, pace of play, and fan entertainment. They debate how coaches and players should handle challenges without emotion, including examples from MLB and the idea of trusting certain players more than others. They also argue for adopting MLB-style rules in college—such as pickoff limits, a three-batter minimum, pitch clocks, and the ghost runner—to improve pace, development, and viewer experience.00:00 Welcome Back!01:49 SEC Tournament Goes ABS03:39 Rules and First Reactions04:23 Impact on Umpires and Pace09:11 Challenge Strategy and Emotions22:24 MLB Trends and NCAA Feasibility25:17 More Rule Changes for Pace31:41 Wrap UpFor athletes and sports programs of all levels, AstroTurf has managed the entirety of the synthetic turf manufacturing process for decades.

    Revisiting Our Golden Spikes Discussion [D1 Daily]

    On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons revisit the Golden Spikes discussion from last week and the social media blowback Roons received, with Roons reflecting on his argument, the reliability of defensive data, and why he still believes Roch Cholowsky remains a legitimate candidate for the GSA. They discuss how award narratives can form too early, comparing past examples like Christian Moore vs. Charlie Condon. They also note other players who deserve consideration, while also floating the idea that final votes should wait until close to Omaha.The show then shifts to Burkie’s concept of “comparative denial,” using box-score hunting to feel better during slumps, with stories including Tristan Bissetta’s 0-for-13 day, Willy Taveras going 2-for-12 across two games while keeping a hit streak, and a 21-inning Northern Colorado game with extreme stat lines.00:00 Welcome Back!01:45 Golden Spikes "Blowback"03:03 Reframing Roch's Case11:31 Let the Vote Breathe19:34 Comparative Denial Explained21:39 Bisetta 0-for-13 Day23:37 Willy Tavaras Hit Streak Story25:38 21-Inning Box Score Therapy26:38 Final Takeaways and Sign-OffFor athletes and sports programs of all levels, AstroTurf has managed the entirety of the synthetic turf manufacturing process for decades.
