I pretty much concur with this list and the reasons given for each.

There will be much discussion/debate here about the #2 & #3 programs, for sure. The reasoning given in the article is understandable. I get it.

I think the list is from 2011 or 2012 (not sure); but, I still think it's accurate even today.

#1...........Southern California

#2...........Texas

#3...........LSU

#4...........Arizona State

#5...........Stanford

Looks about right. USC is like Norte dame though, eventually they have to ducking do something or they have to start falling off

Upon further thought, I think I'd replace Stanford with Miami.

Miami has 25 CWS appearances and 4 titles to Stanford's 18 appearances and only 2 titles.

Even Arizona has more than Stanford...18 apps & 4 titles.

LSU # 2 buddy nice try Lol
Just flip 2 and 3 around and I’ll say I agree with that. Modern Texas baseball has been weak as well

no it hasn't

They have 11 CWS appearances and 2 national titles since 2000. Weaker than what they were prior? Sure. "weak as hell"? Not even close.

Yeah that USC stat is pretty wild. Perfect baseball weather year round. You'd think they would be able to field a decent team every year

LSU is #1 over the past 30 years, for sure; but, this is an all-time ranking.

I've tried so hard over the years to become emotionally invested in College Baseball & College Basketball. I want to care. I just can't make myself care. I am jealous of those that do. I think it would have taken the sting out of our 13 year ride on the college football crazy train.
