ESPN.com's college baseball coverage is just plain arse

Look, I get that this is not a nationwide sport. Hell, the #1 team in the country all season long, and the school with the 2nd most natties in all team sports, has a ballpark that they should be ashamed of.
Still, the complete amateur-hour dismissal of a sport that the most diehard college sports fans DO pay some attention to has been a frustration for years.
Generally,I don't log into ESPN.com and arrange all the content to my liking. So, I assume that what I see is (within some parameters) a general look.
College baseball does not show up as one of the sports to click directly into across the banner. Fine. Again, I understand that. Clicking on "More Sports" is not a killer issue.
These are a few of the "More Sports" you can get to directly with that second click, even during the NCAA tournament.
- Little League World Series
- National Lacrosse League
- Cricket
- Premier Lacrosse League (TIL there are TWO of these things)
- The Savannah fricking Bananas
Then, when you DO finally click through to find the current scoreboard, and reset the filter from "Top 25" to "All" (this being the tournament), you still see crap like Troy sporting a record of 65-59. That's right, folks, they have played 126 games since the season started 108 days ago.
FFS, for as many things as they do really well, you just want to shake them by the neck sometimes.
Holy shite! Where's the Tylenol.

It's almost like college baseball isn't a major sport and even LSU loses money on it. Huh.

Yeah, Liberty has a record of 84-39 apparently.
