Boggled my mind Vandy tripped into the World Series but when I saw they were playing UVA I thought surely the dream is over.

Then that UVA pitcher last night... I mean... wow. I really felt sorry for that guy. Bases loaded and he walks three and Vandy ends up getting 9 runs in that inning. Crazy thing was the first batter in that inning was a K for the pitcher.

I'm pulling for Vandy because this would be their first championship in the school's history.

Yea I've been watching most of the games pretty closely. I was rooting for Ole Miss but since they're out I hope Vandy wins. Felt really bad for that UVA pitcher last night. Had really good stuff, just couldn't find the zone. Looked like he lost all of his confidence in that 3rd inning (I think it was the 3rd) and never recovered. It was hard to watch.

That't the thing about basketball and baseball; the "best" aka the team with the best record isn't always the team that wins the championship; it's the team that is the hottest at the end of the season.

But yea, I would like to see Vandy represent the SEC and win the series.

I'm rooting for VA.

4 years ago we were the only other SEC school (besides LSU) to win a national title. That's a pretty big feather in your cap. Well now SC has not only won one, they've got 2. We went from being in an exclusive club of 2 to being lapped in just 2 years.

I dont' want another SEC school to win one, regardless of the team...although if I HAAAAAD to pick someone it would be vandy. I'd pull for them to win it all in pretty much any other sport, just not this one.

Yea, I am really far into the bitter barn these days so go UVA.

And that'll make 3 SEC teams losing a national title in the sports that matter and for some reason it makes me happy knowing UGA wasn't the team to do that recently.

I don't get y'all. If you don't pull for Vandy that's all well and good but because we play against them? You have no allegiance to the SEC?

There's really only us 3 that have a national title to this point? I'd have thought arky or one of the Mississippis would by the way they talk about baseball. Same with Florida

Nope. Only Georgia.

BUT Georgia is in the SEC blah blah blah

Don't care. Georgia could be in the B1G, PAC 12, ACC or whatever. I wouldn't care. Hell, the road would be easier.

Ours in 1990 was actually the first baseball title in SEC history if memory serves. Then LSU won like 6 in teh next decade.

Right up to 2011 or whatever we had something that only 1 other SEC baseball team could claim. Now, not only does another team have double what we have, another one could join the club as well.

No thanks.

Obviously haven't watched much of it since I didn't know Vandy and Virginia had started playing until I read this thread. I did watch the last Vandy v.Texas game which was good. Seems like they should have a 7 or at least a 5 game series for the championship. The World Series is the only baseball series that I really watch.

I do hope that Vandy wins it all, nothwithstanding some of the insufferable pricks who post on the board.

Did I say I want Vandy to lose? No. I want them to win this. Vandy is one of only 3 teams in the SEC not named Georgia I do not hate. But do I want to watch them is what you asked. No. I am not a Vandy or Virginia fan.

You're wrong, I'm right.

This girl wants you to pull for Vandy
