How does it feel now that Ole Miss won a title the year after MSU?

I know it slightly took the air of Auburn National Title in 2010 for me...when our biggest rival won it the next year...and the following...

It stung when Auburn blew it in 2013..

In all honesty, I thought it would make me feel worse. I don't care as much though, we still won one that no one can take away from us, and now Ole Miss has one. Pretty cool for little old Mississippi to have back-to-back national championships in any sport.

It is pretty crazy that a state as small as Mississippi now has back to back titles with two different schools. Really impressive.

I'd think both programs would view it well for the State.

I thought it was cool as shite when Bama/Auburn and the State of Alabama held football NC's for four straight years (almost 5 yrs.)

2009 Bama/2010 Auburn/2011 Bama/2012 Bama and damned if Auburn didn't make it to the NC again in 2013.

Ole Miss , Southern Miss and MSU are all 3 getting it done on the baseball diamond.

Ole Miss and State have obviously pulled ahead. If MSU can keep from finishing last in the conference so much they’ll become a perennial powerhouse.

I'd have to think this is a "doesn't matter, had sex" moment for the majority of their fanbase.

I’m happy for them. I may be in the minority but outside of good natured shite talking with my Ole Miss buddies on thanksgiving and one weekend in the spring, I don’t have much disdain at all towards them.


Now, if we hadn’t pulled it off last year it would be an entirely different story and I’d likely be melting

i would obviously prefer they didnt win, but i am eternally grateful that we won ours before they did. it would have been a tough pill to swallow had we not. that said, om baseball has the support that warrants this kind of success. they are consistently bringing in crowds of 10-12 K on big weekends. with that kind of support and investment in facilities, it was a matter of time before it paid-off. overall, im not too mad and in retrospect, a little relieved at the timing. the pressure to match theirs had they won it first would have been incredible.

I was just in disbelief. No negative feelings just feeling like im in an alternate reality. Like what are the odds of this happening in back to back years. Bizarre. Happy for Mike Bianco though. Very few deserve it more than he.

When it comes to any other sport i refuse to root for any other SEC team... baseball is different... Voluntears have no one to blame but themselves for they way they act and played the sport by turning off all the other fans from the SEC. Vandy lets a fan ruin their team!

Congrats to the Rebs!

It was cool to see some long time ole miss posters reactions yesterday and last night. I remember that elation. I'm good knowing that we have one.

The baseball gods have their reasons for what happened in back-to-back years. However, I want Bianco to go back to his old ways and none of this new stuff.

Mississippi loves college baseball, and for two straight years, a Mississippi fanbase has taken over Omaha and shown the world. We, as a state, don't get much to thump our chest about, so I think most folks can put differences aside and enjoy the spectacle.

If you want to check on a baseball fanbase today, check-in on the hogs. It's been a tough 5 years for them.

Most of the reactions from my friends and family have been welcome to the club type, don’t remember who was there first type shite. Which is fine with me. I said good job guys last year, and they are saying the same thing. Like the other poster said, if they had lost, don’t think it would have been this Friendly lol.

I’ll always root against the rebs in sports however back to back titles for MS is amazing. Folks in every corner of the state are happy about their baseball team. Also frick Alabama and Auburn.

Most State people are happy for Ole Miss and particular Coach Bianco as he well respected around state.
The rivalry is still fierce but in baseball I think it is very respectful between us.
Plus if you are not a Tim Elko fan then you might be living under a sand pile.

Plus back to back titles for Mississippi is just plain awesome. It does nothing to diminish what we did last year.

It was great to see Bianco and Elko get a title. Have a feeling Elko will end up coaching at OM one day. It’s also great for the state of MS. I believe we had a Juco team win the National Title this year too?

To be totally honest, while Ole Missfits are the enemy, the baseball team doesn't really bother me for a variety of reasons. Plus I like Mike Bianco and was happy for him after he took so much crap from UM fans lol.

He's actually a very good coach but secretly, MSU fans knew firing him would have been a good thing if you are a MSU fan even though we have not lost a series to them in a long while.
