Since UF started focusing on becoming one of the best public universities in the nation the enrollment became more nerdy every year.

The typical UF student these days cares little about sports. Being this close you can see it happening year after year.

It's quite simple.

Despite being among the largest fan bases in the country, Florida fans don't care about college baseball.

That's too. Florida has fans all over tho. I do agree with some of the other posters about other things to do in Florida. Florida has great beaches and beaches are just hard to top in this part of the country. LSU has the absolute most die hard fans in the country and it ain't close. No other fan base comes close. Those people will die for LSU. Not just baseball or football, they will do for LSU, period. That type of loyalty is admirable.

I think it’s a statewide thing across all sports pro and college. College Football really moves the needle unlike anything else. Look at TB Rays games… they’re the best team in baseball and the Trop is lucky if it’s half full most nights. Even the NFL teams don’t exactly have the most passionate fanbases.

“You’re old coach obviously didn’t think so when he placed huge bets on bama to lose to LSU”

The opposite. Actually he thought nobody was watching. Not many in Alabama were.

They are still shell shocked from their dumster fire football team's performance last year.

I'd latch onto this baseball team if i were them because Sunbelt billy aint winning anything of note anytime soon.

An LSU fan who instantly switches to being a full time OU fan whenever it’s convenient saying this? Lol

Why would LSU fans be obsessed about Florida’s baseball support. Does it bother them for some reason?

I think it might. When LSU fans actually remember that the sport of college baseball consists of LSU fans and hardly anyone else, it's difficult to truly celebrate a CWS title.

They have a BIRM past first base at their home field. Like a softball field... bring a blanket.

That's because in Omaha, it's about 95 % LSU fans, and especially tonight.


Even when LSU doesn’t make it, it’s still like 10-15% LSU fans.

Your best "sour grapes" post in a while.


Ironic, yeah? That post got 15 replies and over 100 downvotes from the most insecure fanbase in the universe. It hurts your feelings so much that the vast majority of sports fans are apathetic about college baseball.

I do not know why.
