*This is strictly a hypothetical question. In no way I'm I saying we will even make it to a super. WAOM*

Would you rather host State, a team we took 2/3 from pretty handily earlier in the year at their place, or travel to play a team like ULL. In any other situation, the hosting choice would be the obvious one, but given our history, it could set up to be an almost unbearable WAOM moment: our in-state rival keeping us out of Omaha yet again.

FWIW, I'd take hosting in a heartbeat. If we can't take 2 from a team we've beaten handily twice and should have beaten a third time in front of 12,000+ at Swayze, we don't deserve Omaha.

Definitely want to play State, but ULL doesn't scare me.

I realize that a sizable portion of our fanbase is scared, and I can kind of understand that given out recent history, but y'all have to at least shut the frick up about it.



Given the choices, our want should be to host a super regional. Every fricking time. I don't care who the opponent is, you'd pass up the opportunity to bring the biggest stage of baseball that we can possibly bring to our campus because of the perceived easier route elsewhere? frick you if that's your opinion.


So you're scared that State will beat us and go to Omaha again through our own super regional? Again I say frick you. There's a reason we're a 1 seed and hosting and they aren't, and it's because we're a better baseball team. And we should want that matchup a helluva a lot more than traveling to a higher seeded national seed.


Yes, if we host them and they beat us it will fricking suck, and I will have a hard time coming to this board for a while, but we have got to get rid of this pussy arse attitude as a fanbase when it comes to getting to Omaha and how it relates to Mississippi State. We will get there again soon, we put too much effort into it not to. And as much shite as State gives us for our ineptness we should strive to bitch slap them in the greatest way possible: fricking them up in our own house and moving to Omaha through them. How is that not what people want? Are y'all seriously scared to see these cunts at work if we can't get the job done?



I want this bad. I want to shut them the frick up. And if you feel differently I'd like for you to at least not say it publicly because it embarrasses the shite out of me and I'm sure the team feels likewise.


Let's (if that's how the cards play tomorrow) beat the fricking shite out of these bastards next weekend and focus on Omaha.

I agree with everything you said. I asked the question because of the different opinions I've heard from other fans regarding the topic

I wasn't pointing at you, but at the opinion that a lot of our fans share. I can't stand it.

My grandad, an enormous Gene's page type State fan, was going to try to make their regional but he said that ULL didn't allot any tickets to opposing teams. You just had to show up and hope someone would sell you some. frick that shite

Ha you're right. But that would be foolish since I've been playing that reverse jinx all year.

I think we're more than capable of beating either team but that's mainly the reason I want State in Oxford. ULL fans are apparently less civilized LSU fans and I want none of that.

I'm glad you've changed your tune Henry. I want to end this OMAHA joke in the most powerful way possible.

Guys I have an opinion on this.

I'm going to be in Oxford for the first time since September next weekend. All my friends from OM and State will be there. I wanna get hammered and verbally assault some State fans.

Let's host.
