Question for all my dear Bulldog fans and I will preface this with the fact that I am very much aware of my Tigers own downfalls with 2 and Q'd at Omaha and the fiasco down at Alex Box against Stony Brook though they were an above average team a couple of years ago. Anyway here is the big question , How in the Sam Hill did ya'll not win at least one National Championship with those 4 studs on the team. Two of the best hitters in Will Clark and Rafael Palmero (Thunder and Lightning) and then Thigpen coming out of the Bull pen and Brantley being one of the best starting aces that I can remember. I just cant figure out how you all didn't at least win one National Championship during those years. Please refresh my memory . TIA.

It's baseball. That's the only answer I can give you. Also, don't forget how stacked all the other teams in that CWS were.

Believe it was Miami and Texas that got knocked us out. Think there was a line shot hit back our pitcher that may have knocked him in out in the semi's if I'm not mistaken.

Well 1/8 odds stacked up against a sample of 10 say worse than average luck.

Polk teams were mentally weak and didn't respond well to adversity, and he never, ever recruited enough pitching depth to win in Omaha. The first part of this is what let Bertman pass him by and make him his bitch basically.
There's a long excuse about how we were 2-0 in 85 and beating Texas when Gene Morgan(our pitcher) caught one off the foot, was never the same in the game, we lost, and it essentially ended us in Omaha tied for 3rd.
We'll win one under Cohen at some point IMO...Just a different mental approach that I like alot better.
