The 2022 college baseball season has reached its midway point and the early projections for the NCAA Baseball Tournament Field of 64 have been released.

No. 7 Ole Miss (19-9, 4-5 SEC) is getting a mixed bag from the two projections put out by D1Baseball and Baseball America on Wednesday with one still having them slotted as a National Seed and hosting a regional while the other has them hitting the road.

Coming off their 10-7 loss to Southern Mississippi in Pearl on Tuesday night, the Rebels find themselves projected to be heading north to Indiana as the 2 seed in the South Bend Regional in D1Baseball’s first projections.

Notre Dame is projected as the No. 11 National Seed with Rutgers as the 3 seed and Wright State as the 4 seed. The South Bend Regional is paired with the Coral Gables Regional and No. 6 National Seed Miami (Fla.)

Joining the Hurricanes would be Florida as the 2 seed, Georgia Southern as the 3 seed and Bethune-Cookman as the 4 seed.

Baseball America as the Rebels feeling a little better in its initial projections, slotting them as the No. 8 National Seed and paired with No. 9 National Seed Oklahoma State and the Stillwater Regional.

Joining the Cowboys would be UCLA as the 2 seed, N.C. State as the 3 seed and Oral Roberts as the 4 seed.

Joining the Rebels in the Oxford Regional would be — do not shoot the messenge — 2 seed Southern Mississippi, 3 seed Wake Forest and 4 seed New Orleans.

There is still more than half of the SEC schedule remaining for the Rebels which resumes on Friday with Alabama (18-12, 4-5) coming to Oxford-University Stadium this weekend. The Rebels close out April with a trip to South Carolina next weekend, host Mississippi State (April 21-23) then travel to Fayetteville to take on No. 2 Arkansas (April 29-May 1).
