A&M's beef should be with Vanderbilt, not TCU. The SEC got 2 of the 8 national seeds, and Vandy got one of them with 18 losses. I actually looked a little closer at A&M's record since I was discussing the bracket with one of my husband's Aggie friends, and I noticed that A&M only had 14 road games. They had 36 games at home and 5 at neutral sites. TCU had 22 road games, 29 home games, and 3 neutrals (RPI rankings 5/23/15). I don't know if that was something the committee considered, but I thought it interesting. The Aggies can refuse to acknowledge it if they want, but the Big 12 is still a major baseball conference and their regular-season champion is going to get a top 8 national seed with a 43-11 record. To think otherwise is just silly.
(Correction: Florida got the other SEC seed, not Vandy--see NBHorn7 correction below)
