But I'm happy with the overall season... Didn't expect to make it to Omaha this year. The ending sure sucked though.

Everyone should be. No one thought Omaha coming in.

In hindsight, which is always 20/20, we probably shouldn't have made it this far. A lot of SEC teams over looked our inability to lay off breaking balls this year. The CWS teams we faced didn't do that.

It was a very good season for us. Better to have come up short in the CWS then not made it at all.

This season actually met my highest expectations. We never had the pitching to win it all, but were better then expected.

This year was ahead of schedule. Not disappointed too bad. We should be pretty salty next year too. And I'll say I was wrong about zay. He was way more consistent than I expected. And Kenley. Good job team

We'll be even better next year offensively, IMO. Next year hinges on offseason development of our young arms.

The ending always sucks unless you win the last game of the year.

Who do we no doubt lose on this roster?

No, but for extended swaths of time, it actually looked like we somehow did. The cocktease that we could win it all is what hurt, but going to the CWS is never disappointing.
