Auburn looks Omaha worthy. MS State does not.

I went to the third game at Dudy Noble yesterday and watched a really good baseball team clinch the series. Too bad that team wasn't my homefield Bulldogs. It was Auburn and damn are they good!
A couple of observations:
1. MS State seems to have two solid pitchers, plus two more that are serviceable. We changed pitchers 6 times, whereas Auburn went most of the game with their starter, only making a change late, already up by 8-9 runs.
2. Auburn played with vigor, like they were hungry. MS State looked tired and showed little hustle.
3. Auburn has solid hitting. It might be some of the best I've seen all season. Only Georgia has a slight edge.
4. MS State really needs speed at the bases. Their throws were late and not well timed. It was Senior Day, the last home game for those seniors, yet they played lackadaisical.
Right now, I don't see this team putting it together and getting back to the CWS. Not this season. They appear to lack the drive. Auburn though, they look good enough to win it all.
Just saying.
