I bet UCLA has great facilities, all chair back seats, a super batter’s eye, fresh nachos and hot dogs. I bet their baseball team gets all the NIL.

UCLA is gonna be a wagon this year.
It’s more likely they coast to Omaha and fall short again once they actually have to play peers. Or maybe they’ll actually play decent competition in Regionals or Supers this time and not even get there. Either way, they’re not going to be tested come May

Will they steamroll through the Big Ten? Probably. Is the Big Ten a weaker baseball conference? Definitely. But they just went 3-0 against quality SEC programs this weekend…you can’t really use the “haven’t played anybody” excuse. Played LSU and Ark in Omaha last year, I’m sure they learned lessons from those two losses, they know what to do to reach that level even though they won’t play a full SEC schedule like LSU does. Also the RPI takes strength of schedule very much into account, I find it’s a very good metric, a good mix of SOS and straight W-L record. They’ll be appropriately seeded in the bracket

This year? Probably they look really good. Last year though they would have been middle pack SEC worthy. Pretty good but not Arkansas or LSU or a few other SEC teams caliber.

They have the best player in the country on their squad. Roch is one of the best prospects of the last decade

Eh…not really.
Not taking anything from LeBron, he’s great, but it’s not debatable.
Roch is the most hyped and exciting prospect since Bryce Harper. So in over a decade.
If one tries to make an argument like this, one doesn’t know much about baseball.
