SEC is a monster in baseball. And I tell You what---those mudder fuvchers take the shit serious as fvck. I know the SEC lobes them some pigskin. But baseball ain't far off.
Ncaa baseball tournament
- Thread starter uncfan in ky
- Start date
26 years and you haven't won a damn thing and you blame Swofford. I guess having coaches that suck along with the AD's wasn't the problem. BTW here's to another 26 years of futility in the ACC. You guys will be a Jeopardy question real soon.
No doubt. I was proud that when UVA won it all in 2015 we had to go through Arkansas, Florida and Vandy for the title.
I thought that it was cool that former Florida basketball coach, Billy Donovan, came back to Gainesville and gave the #1 UF team a pep talk about going for back-to-back national titles. It's nice that Donovan still keeps tabs with the Gators in some way.

Well, the 'noles can take solace with their women's softball team.
FSU had just won their 1st softball national title (& also the ACC's first one).
Congrats to them.
Yeah FSU had most trips to WCWS without a title until last night. Baseball team still has that honor though.
Dude is the Tony Bennett of college baseball but with way more talent on his rosters. Dominant regular seasons and falls flat in the postseason.
Too young this year led to some very bad games. Next year we should be in Omaha at the minimum
I have no clue how you didn't get out of the Super Regionals some years with that level of talent. UVA is the only ACC team that has the balls to win it all in Omaha.
Unlucky breaks and some let downs. This year showed at TT. They got overwhelmed and the pitching was bad and some bad errors. We have a good class coming in & should have some vets next year to host and take us to the CWS. I’ll never forget that stupid grand slam by Cal St Fullerton to win a walk off.
****ing hate CSF. TT is really good this year. I wouldn't be ashamed to lose to them in Lubbock. Hopefully, UVA gets healthy next year and we can keep some of these elite recruits from signing with MLB teams.
Yeah I mean we had 2 signees go in the first round. One at #6. Obviously he isn't coming..
Too young this year in baseball but provided prostitutes to 16 year old basketball recruits. When is too young too young?
Ok. You're really trying too hard now and it's just getting old at this point. Your own brethren that are regulars on this board don't even find it amusing anymore.
Not your best effort but your posts generally suck anyway.
Baseball is a crazy sport. So you just never know. But IMO, Florida's the best team. And honestly...By a ton. So many weapons. A deep, deep, deep staff. India is just crazy good. They should win it...But ad said---bsseball is a crazy sport; Which means Tenn Tech's gonna win the damn thing.
My brother has an engineering degree form there so that would be pretty cool, lol. The Reds took India so hope the dude is as legit as you say he is.
Meh....I mean not really. Getting to the CWS is tough. Winning it is even tougher. Advancing to a super is kinda like getting to a FF. At a minimm you have to win 3 games. It' tough.
Fair. But baseball is a game where one guy can shut you down. Dominate an entire team/game. You Don t have to have the best team. Just that one guy. On that one day. Who has his stuff going. Dudes like that can wreck a season quickly.
Plus, you face a pretty stern test the next day. In all likelihood, the 2 seed out of your Regional . And in most cases, you'll have to neat that team twice. And that' s just the regional..
Supers are a whole other beast.
This!!!! The competition in college baseball is so level it’s ridiculous.
Carolina beat Stetson today, Stetson has the best pitching staff in the country & had won 18 in a row. But because it’s Stetson, everyone thinks it’s an easy series.
Not only that. But it's a team sport that can be dominated by one guy. And on some days, that one guy is all you need. That's what is so unique about baseball. You can lose 15-0 to team "A" on Monday. Then turn around and beat them on Tuesday. No other sport can offer that. Where one guy can shut down an entire team. And that's all it takes.
I worked the IHSAA baseball tourney a couple weeks ago. Two, Top 10 teams in my sectional. A team that was 12-12 won the damn thing. And beat both Top 10 teams. They threw their stud on Wed. Threw their #2 on Thurs vs a lesser team. Brought their ace back for the final on Monday. And he was lights out.
That' baseball.
Duke-Texas Tech Game 3 today with a trip to Omaha on the line.
We lit up their ace Killian yesterday and our batters are in a groove so I'm cautiously optimistic.

Baseball is a strange sport, no doubt. I kind of see it as an individual sport, just with a team concept. Your teammates can't help you hit the ball, steal a base, catch a ball, or make a throw. That's on you as the individual. 90% of the action is simply pitcher verse batter. Even defensive plays, for the most part, are handled individually.
And that’s what makes it the greatest sport ever. You can’t hide behind a clock. You have to go out & get 27 outs & score more runs than you give up.
You said it exactly like it is, a team sport based on individual performance.
It would be really cool if both UNC & Duke made the finals in the college World Series.
Let the greatest rivalry in College basketball carry over to Baseball.
CWS bracket is set
3 SEC teams (UF, Arkansas, Mississippi State)
2 Pac-12 teams (Washington, Oregon State)
2 Big 12 teams (Texas, Texas Tech)
1 ACC team (UNC)
I really don't want UNC to win. I like UVA being the only ACC team to win it this century. Not a huge fan of the SEC so ruling those teams out, although I do like the way MSU plays. I guess I would be okay with UF winning it since their coach (Kevin O'Sullivan) is a UVA alum. Texas and Oregon State have more titles than we do so that would give them more separation. Give me Texas Tech or Washington at this point. I'd probably go Washington.

Head coach is probably on a barstool as we speak.
Down to the last out and a pop foul drops in the middle of 3 dudes....
Oregon State is going to crush them tomorrow and then it will sting even more.
Just can’t pull of Oregon St & that POS child molester they have.Down to the last out and a pop foul drops in the middle of 3 dudes....

On a side note, how about the coaching hire Miss St made? That was a shocker.
I got my undergrad degree from OSU and they went back-to-back when I was there, so I am obligated to cheer for them.
Yeah, the MSU hire came out of left field!
I get where you’re coming from but I could never cheer for Luke Heimlich to have any success.I got my undergrad degree from OSU and they went back-to-back when I was there, so I am obligated to cheer for them.
