Don't be a jealous twit. Everybody had to deal with Covid. State played who was put in front of them, and won. It should have been NC State and State in the Finals, no doubt. But no one can know how that would have finished. Vanderbilt is the one that got the gift, not State.
MSU never ran from Covid or used it as an excuse in any sport. I seem to remember them playing several games with like 40 football players on their active roster due to Covid, one of them being Georgia.
Don't be that guy.

I have seen a lot of good Texas baseball teams.. and 2021 was one of our better years.. and State beat us fair and square..
NC State did get hosed though, and perhaps they were the best team.. but baseball is a funny game. so no way to know who would have won that series..
Mississippi State had a legit team and the title is good in my eyes. Maybe they finish 2nd.. that’s pretty damn good too..

It hurt us more than anyone. Vandy would have had to burn Leiter (no pun) and NC State would have had to burn one of their few remaining pitchers just to get through that elimination game that never happened. Vandy got the free pass and was able to save Leiter for us. It hurt state that the game was never even played. We had to face a Rested Leiter, Rocker, and their remaining staff and still won. Everyone assumes NC State would have won, but Vandy had just beaten a depleted NC State team 3-1 the day before with Leiter ready to pitch the deciding game.
there is some serious revisionist history going on in this thread...usually coming from one team.

Boohoo. I cheered for State in that series, and I was happy to see them finally win a title (especially over Vandy). None of them got their panties in a twist over that comment, they just downvoted and moved on.
I’m not jealous of State’s title, but I am jealous of the Dude. I have been to a few games there and the atmosphere is unreal. Their history is too deep for them to be down long. They just need the right guy running the show, which I don’t think they have currently.
