Will both meet in the championship series with an 8-0 record?

Tennessee's side is looking suspect with a super vs Oregon and potential opening CWS matchups against schools like Old Dominion or DBU. Arkansas rolls their side with ease, with a slight speed bump in Vandy.

6 teams have gone the distance since the tournament went to 64 teams, but just 3 since the inception of the championship series.

2 are SEC schools:
2011 South Carolina (w/ championship series)
2000 LSU (no championship series)

Considering only one number 1 seed has ever won the tournament, Tennessee has better odds

I love this baseVOLS team. But I really, really doubt we go undefeated until the CWS Finals. We are gonna catch a few Ls along the way should we get that far somehow.

TBH simply going to Omaha would be icing for this season considering where Tennessee baseball has been for the past 15 years. We could get swept out of Omaha and I'll still love this team. They have laid the foundation for years of Tennessee baseball to come. Vitello has 30+ more cracks at a natty at Tennessee regardless of what happens this year.

I doubt anyone goes undefeated the entire way but I’d give the best odds to Arkansas. That team is just so talented

Doubt either does it, but I’d have to give the edge to arkansas. The team has its flaws and is beatable in a single game but not in a series.
If Tennessee makes it to Omaha they’ll be matched up with Texas, who is red hot right now

I just hope that Vandy, as defending natty champs, and the team with the best overall ERA and batting average in the league, can best prepare you for what's next. It's our duty...NAY, OUR QUEST, to help prepare Arky to bring home the hardware that last belonged to us. Happy to do it.

That's a sweet and not tired meme, well done. I can't imagine why I would be "butthurt" though when we're LITERALLY currently holding the trophy that you want so much. Good luck. Save the Prep H for yourselves when a pop foul ball is hit, and you're puckering so hard you bust an o-ring.

It's not a meme I use very often, but sometimes the classics just fit.

Congrats on the trophy. Sorry again about your anus. Just make sure you have Vaseline next time you break down in College Station. What happened really isn't Arkansas's fault.

You should have lead with that. Your obedience is recognized. Dismissed.

I really don’t see how his post qualifies as one for the “butthurt” category.

Nobody cares about your ERA and Batting Avg vs a shitty schedule

Vitello has done an amazing job of creating a strong Vols baseball program out of thin air. We knew he was a really good coach but I don't think anyone thought he'd do this well this quickly. Even if someone poaches him Tennessee should be in position to hire a quality replacement.
