We are getting manhandled by the ACC and Pac12.

Only 2 teams in Omaha and one is because they played another SEC team. MSU won’t win today so don’t count on us. Our marquee team that ran through the conference like a hot knife through butter was beaten by an average NC State team.

Our conference is overhyped imo

I think there’s a trend of the SEC valuing anyone who can throw 95+ over guys who can actually throw strikes and get guys out. Our lineup looks confused when they face a guy who consistently throws strikes and doesn’t gift us base runners.

I still think it takes a 7 game series in baseball to know who the best team is..that would hurt arkansas ,not sure about nc state..

Arkansas had some glaring issues if we were paying attention. They didnt have the starting pitching. What's impressive to me is running the team through a relief /closer

Arguably the best team in the ACC and maybe the country in the second half of the year

Maybe it's just the SEC West that is overrated. 1/4 of the field will be SEC East teams.

Please beat Notre Dame. It's bad enough that they are media darlings in football every year.

Turn in your coat. Win or lose, I'll guarantee your kids don't think like that. Pathetic.

I call BS on your thread title.

SEC had 14% of the bids (9 out of 64)

37.5% of the final 16 (6 of 16)

At least 25% of the CWS (2 of 8) with one slot left.

SEC is not overrated but there are a lot of good teams around the country and there is parity due to scholarship limits.

I think SEC is the best league and very strong. However I think that the rankings are slanted too far in the SEC’s favor because of the circular computer ratings.

It gives the impression that the SEC is utterly dominate while the truth is, the margins are very thin in a sport like baseball.

37.5% of the teams in Omaha from the conference that only had 14% of the bids.

Still say the conference is overrated?
