The baseball tournament committee placed 7 (!) SEC schools as #1 regional seeds. Only one made the College World Series.Â
The mighty SEC and the stupid RPI in other spring sports too:
Men's golf - 9 of the final 30 from the SEC. Three made the quarterfinals. All lost in the quarters.
Womens golf - 6 of the final 24 from the SEC including #1 Alabama. One made the quarterfinals. And lost to Stanford.
Womens tennis - 5 of the top 16 seeds from the SEC. Only one made the quarterfinals. And lost to Stanford in the semis.
Softball - the SEC is very strong in softball. 4 schools made the College World Series. But none won the title.

I was going to get to this with another update to my "NCAA Baseball Update" thread, but you're quite right with ACC sharing the ridiculous overseeding in baseball.
7 SEC teams made the tournament. All were #1 seeds and hosts for the regionals (first round). 5 made the super-regionals. 1 made the CWS. None are left (Florida 2 and 'que).
10 ACC teams made the tournament. 6 were #1 seeds and hosts for the regionals. 4 made the super-regionals. 1 made the CWS. None are left (Miami 2 and 'que).
The only 3 teams that hosted a regional not from those two conferences were La Lafayette (Arizona won that regional), TCU and Texas Tech (both still playing).
The Big 12 has been very impressive percentage wise. 3 teams made the tournament (TCU, Texas Tech, Ok State). All 3 teams are still playing. TCU and Ok State are both in the drivers seat in their respective halves of the draw at 2-0.
