As the second half of conference play starts, it's time to start dreaming of postseason baseball. Regionals will be here in less than two months. Sixty four teams will begin postseaon play with a hope of making it to Omaha.

The Horned Frogs (28-10, 11-4 Big 12), who failed to make the tournament last year, are currently just behind West Virginia in the Big 12 standings. If the season were to end today, they are poised to not only make it back into the tournament but possibly also host a regional.

What other teams could make the postseason tournament?

D1Baseball.com, one of the leading sources of college baseball information, scores, and more, has updated its projections for the postseason tournament. D1Baseball has six of the 14 teams in the Big 12 making the postseason - Arizona, Arizona State, Kansas, Kansas State, TCU, and West Virginia. Both TCU and Arizona are projected to host Regionals.

Three teams TCU has played in midweek games are also projected to make the field - DBU, UTRGV, and UTSA.

Projected Schools in the NCAA Baseball Tournament

Big 12 Schools:

• Arizona - Projected No. 15 national seed, which would have them hosting a Regional in Tucson. Their potential Super Regional would be in Fayetteville against No. 2 Arkansas.
