I'll disagree. The State/LSU history is fantastic and literally built SEC baseball, which led to NCAA baseball as we know it. There isn't a more heated rivalry. If you find an LSU fan who loves Polk and Cohen, or a State fan who loves Maneiri and Bertman, I'll suck your dick personally.

That's all good and great ... and we do appreciate that rivalry, it's a good one.

But SCAR and the taterheads were doing it, taking baseball seriously, long before MSU or LSU really cared about baseball. Before there was Polk and Bertman at MSU and LSU, there was Bobby Richardson (yes that Bobby Richardson, Yankee Great bobby Richardson) at South Carolina and Bill Wilhelm at Clemson. And while I do not like anything taterhead in general ... Bill Wilhelm not only made baseball what it is in the state of South Carolina, he had a lot to do with promoting it all over the southeast. It was a helluva man - truly a great baseball man.

The SCAR vs Clemson rivalry was heated in the 50s.

... and no, MSU and LSU did not make SEC baseball what it is today nor did SEC baseball lead to NCAA baseball as we know it today.

That's such a bull shite hubristic claim I don't even know where to begin.

LSU baseball is the king of SEC baseball. MSU ... notsomuch.

LSU

SCAR





Vandy


Georgia




Florida






MSU

Arkansas

Ole Miss

Am I the only one who found this to be a bit too enthusiastic of a promise?

Agreed with SkirpNasty; other than the homosexual bent.

LSU and MSU is the best baseball rivalry in the SEC and was drawing 10000 fans per game when most schools were thrilled to draw half that.
