That's not exactly true. The balls and bats are more juiced than they were during the BBCOR era



You must be a lot younger than I because you seem to have forgotten the early Tanner years when bats were all aluminum and scores were 25-20

again...our last 7 games have been vs ranked opponents. We went 4-3 over those 7. Is it perfect?


We are in the SEC where 10-12 teams are normally ranked and we used to go 6-0 or 5-2

yeah, I started watching as a kid in 97' which was the tail end of that era. Obviously the days of Disher, Giesler, Gonce, Smoak, Powell, Peters had their HR's as well. Just saying that the game does change in that aspect of scoring runs.

I will very much so argue that the SEC is far more competitive the last couple years over anytime. Teams like UGA, Bama, Auburn, Mizzou, UK, UT used to be easy series wins. Now those teams are really good. I remember mid 2000's into the 10's, the series that scared you were vandy, UF, and maybe a team like OM/Arkansas/LSU.


For further proof, if the season ended today we would be the 5 seed at the SEC tournament. 8 SEC teams are ranked.
