Projected starting pitchers

Folger Boaz (UNC): The Tar Heels are going to go with the lefty Folger Boaz, who has an ERA of 7.03 in 16 games (14 starts). Boaz hasn't pitched since May 31st, when he went just 3.1 innings. In his three previous starts against Pitt, NC State, and Georgia Tech, he gave up a combined 12 runs on 19 hits.

Chansen Cole (West Virginia): The Mountaineers were fortunate not to have to insert Cole or much of their bullpen in the elimination game against Troy. I'd have to think that with four days to rest and having only thrown 52 pitches, he'll be ready to go and probably go pretty close to his normal length. Cole hasn't had back-to-back bad performances all season, so if that trend continues, the Mountaineers should get a nice game from him, if that's who they go to.
