Just thought of one possible reason to care about 4 or 5 overall seeding: Might that determine where Stanford would be sent for a regional? If Stanford and Va Tech, for example, are vying for the 4th and 5th overall seeds, would regional geography be dependent on which is no. 4?

Frankly, the NCAA changes its approach to such matters so often that I don't know the answer to my question.

With just two super regionals now, I think there's no doubt Stanford will go to the west super regional in Seattle.
