HATTIESBURG Miss. – The Regionals start on Friday for the battle to make it to Omaha and the College World Series. Southern Miss will play Army as the heavy favorite at -750.

USM Looking Towards The Future

USM won the 2022 Conference USA championship for the regular season, with 43 games and only lost 16. There were awarded the number one seed in the Hattiesburg Regional followed by LSU, Kennesaw State, and Army.

Even though they had a tremendous regular season and earned the number one seed in the region, does not mean legal betting sites have them as the favorite for the region.

Odds To Win Each Region

In fact, neither team is favored to win the region they will be playing for. Still, Southern Miss is projected to make it further than Ole Miss during the 2022 regional round, producing a great opportunity to bet on college baseball.

Hattiesburg Regional Winner

  • LSU +100
  • Southern Miss +140
  • Kennesaw State +700

Coral Gables Regional Winner

  • Miami FL -110
  • Ole Miss +180
  • Arizona +375

It is projected for LSU and Southern Miss to end up playing each other for the region. If they do, Southern Miss has not struggled against LSU during the 2022 regular season and should have favorable odds as an underdog.
