Obviously 2010 Auburn, 2011 Alabama, and of course 2020 Alabama

Any others I’m missing?

We are still on a run of exclusively teams we hate winning baseball national titles since we won ours

22 - Ole Miss
23 - LSU
24 - Tennessee
25 - LSU

So fully expecting a Georgia vs OM title series this year, would be par for the course.

It was actually the hate triangle of MSU in 2021, Ole Miss in 2022, and LSU in 2023.

Neither Mizzou nor Kansas will ever make such a list.

Softball so it really doesn't count but

2024 Oklahoma
2025 Texas

I was going to say A&M could never make the cut but they did win the volleyball title so it's in the realm of possibility for next season if the chips fell right.

Never forget BobLeeDagger after State won the CWS in 2021, he claimed he had a nightmare and predicted Ole Miss would win the 2022 national championship a whole year before it happened.

Still one of the most incredible things I’ve witnessed

Greatest prediction ever

Aided greatly by the MSU AD at the time fighting for his buddy Mike Bianco in the selection committee or else OM possibly doesn’t even make the tournament in 2022.

As if John Cohen hasn’t given State fans enough other reasons to hate him.

That one is the nail in the coffin for Cohen.
