College baseball is one of my favorite sports to watch, especially in the postseason. The intensity and energy these guys play with during regionals is so fun to watch, especially when lower seeds upset higher seed and regional hosts. People that don’t like college baseball have probably never watched a game before. It’s a very fun sport and it definitely helps pass the time between Janruary and September

No wonder you don't suck as much as most Bama fans. Be careful who you say that around tho, some Bama fans might want to kick your arse for saying something blasphemous like that

Grew up son to devoted Alabama grad Brave season ticket holders in the late 80s and went to 20-30 games a year with pops during the miserable late 80s and 1990. Went to probably 1/3 of the home games and all the home playoff games in 1991.
It'll always be #1

Yeah the Stros and A&M football are 1A and 1B for me. I love A&M baseball and the tournament is great but it’s not the Astros
Fall saturdays where your MLB team has a DS or LCS game then your college team has a game that night - cannot be beat. Incredible

90s would've been a good time to grow up a braves fan for sure. You know, if baseball wasn't ghey

I still remember running around our section in 1995 during a night game to the guy who had a portable TV to get NLCS updates of the Braves/Reds for myself and my dad. Did that many times for some of those classic Braves/Stros DLS games too.
We watched the Braves clinch on the quad last year the day of the A&M game and I got quite a few WTF looks as we celebrated like we'd just won a national title

As much as I love college baseball, I’ve never really gotten into MLB. The teams that have been passed on to me are the Astros and Yankees, so when they are in the playoffs, I will watch them and root. That’s about it.

I really didn't. Haven't even seen a highlight yet It sounded cool though.
The only time I really enjoy watching baseball is when I'm there in person with a beer in my hand. But assuming we win the next game and make it to a Super, I'll start watching then. I watched the Super last year but that was really it

Fall MLB baseball is the best baseball. Growing up a Cardinals Braves fan (weird I know my family is odd) and watching them play in October is the best. I hate the cubs but no one can tell me watching them win a world series wasn’t amazing. Baseball is just the best no matter the level of play

Looking back, have you ever lived and experienced certain times in your life that, at the time, don't register as being significant, but in hindsight you see that they are?
That those times are times that you'll remember and cherish until the day that you as a man ceases to exist?
Well, if that makes sense and if so, then you'll relate to me when I say that some of those times have been in the post season of MSU baseball. (God knows we got nothing else to lean on.) (#Croomed.)
For some reason- for many reasons that nobody other than myself and my soul could ever care to hear about- one of the most vivid of those memories was last year.
There's just something about the ol' lazy, dirty, dusty and ragged dog days of summer's heat being interrupted by the excitement of a noon-time baseball game that stirs up my soul like no football game ever coulda dreamed of doing. It's a welcomed reprieve that brings some coolness to a time of the year that is anything but.
And I love it, goddammit.
And in a weird kinda way, I feel like those days are shared with the few who are the LSU's, the Arkansawyers, the Vanderbilt Whistlers (who I'd love to stab in the belly), and even the Bear Landsharks, and when we all come together and cuss each other and our ace pitcher like we do the 2 o'clock sun- that son of a bitch mf'er him.
In a selfish kinda way, I don't so much care about the post season results (although I'd love to win "the big one") as much as I care about the flavor that it brings and the way it spices up my life.
It's a wonderful thing to be in the baseball postseason.
Cheers to all who are there.
And you can all go to hell if we don't win.
Hail State!

Oklahoma has 2 CWS national titles, 10 CWS appearances (last in 2010), and it’s an afterthought for us fans. Baseball is boring.
Men’s and Women’s Gym, Softball, and sometimes Men’s Basketball gets our fan base through.

You know we are huge baseball fans...in a great deal of pain right now. Seeing what's become of our program hurts.

I don't follow MLB. College ball and that's it. Used to love the Braves. Just lost interest.
