It's odd hearing LSU fans compliment the team. Something we have to get used to I suppose. Thanks for the compliments toward the team. They accomplished something tonight I sure didn't expect.


Maybe showing my age a bit - but remember a time where baseball was diff - not near as much of the shite we all sling and talk during football- not saying it was some gentlemen’s game - but there was a certain level of respect for the game or some shite.

This OU team deserves all the praise and more.

When we saw SEC had 5 teams in Omaha - doubt many of us had OU being the one to come out on top. In regional play - damn sure didn’t have them anywhere close to Omaha.

Congrats. No way to watch the run Oklahoma had and not be incredibly impressed. Everyone on that team stepped up


Man - they sure were fun to watch, how can you not love college baseball with something like this? Hell of a run! Looked like a great group of kids on that team - and they damn sure didn’t have a cake walk getting there.

Man, it gets so much fun to see a team start to elevate their play, seeing kids who are not destined for ball after college start to play above their ability.
And as much as I claim to hate ole miss- still have to acknowledge how yall won it in 22’ last one in tournament and win the whole thing.

Hell- Mike Martin made it 17 times with Fla state -never won.

With the same program…..

Probably sacrilege around here but perhaps there needs to be a discussion about rotating this tournament around


Man - you can’t take it out of Omaha!!! But damn sure wouldn’t hurt to take it out of that park. Like how it’s downtown and all- but man, just not a fan of it in general. Not even talking about how it plays - just in general the things feels just too spaced out - part of it seems to be way foul territory is designed - overhead it looks like the Shell logo.

Yeah - saw dude come in then realized that- then thought - this time last year dude was pitching in hs….. and have to guess faced a freshman or two who most likely soiled their britches.

Most unlikeable baseball fans most definitely LSU. Geez, you would think they were playing in every one of the CWS games this year....


I don’t think this is warranted - we been college baseball fans since the 90s, when none of yall paid attention to it - it was all we had - after being crazy bout curly - so we embraced it
quote:

14 of 16 have made it to Omaha since 2021


Damn! Had no clue on that. And we got 5 in Omaha this year - all during a “down year” - not to mention - the 5 is not made up of teams you would have expected. If pressed at bg of season to name the 5 that made it - many lists would have had LSU, Vandy, FLA or Ark in there somewhere.

Is that the leftover carpet from before the Astrodome imploded?


Ha! Mentioned that to someone yest- both tx & kn have fields that look like 70s astrodome. Man- hate seeing that, like I’m watching a damn travel ball game

Every team that UGA has played at home has hit on a field with the same dimensions. It's not the field.


I have watched a little of UGA this year - have seen plenty of hr hit out of that park - where it didn’t make a diff if the wall was in the next parish - they were gone. How many hr did uga hit on road? I’m willing to bet if you take out midweek home games and do an even comparison - prob gonna show enough to dilute this small park bit.

Awe hell- yall know the drill- we got to say that shite to try and bring yall down! Small park, steroids, rolled - juiced bats- only explanation!!!

It was their best game on paper and they sent their best team. Had the least competition at that time slot. Didn't want to go head to head with their best game vs. MLB and Stanley Cup Finals.


True - and very valid point - and a sound biz decision - but that don’t make it right!!!! Obviously I’m a little biased in my viewing pref

Only perspective I see is that Ole Miss is headed to Omaha on the weakest side of the bracket while lsu sits at home again.


Again? I mean granted it’s “living in the past” but again would make one think we didn’t make it last year - and pretty sure we did…

Good lord - the number of threads yall start daily - really doesn’t make anyone question the reasoning behind the co-west banner.

Hasn’t been murderers row for us in the post season so far. However you still gotta get it done. One more to Omaha


Can’t really put my finger on it - and have to admit don’t know much about y’all’s team - other than the success this year - but there is something that makes me feel like bama might be waiting in the shadows to do some damage in Omaha ( expecting all goes as planned today). Don’t know - just seems like they have been quietly moving through post season -
Looked to be a hell of an atmosphere - as mentioned in another thread - no reason this game should be at 11 ( I guess 12 for y’all) at least the aft game.

Always like how during post season - you watch other super regionals - and non sec parks - you see empty seats - pretty tame crowd- (west Va did have pretty intense environment) - show sec parks - and hell, yall see it - great crowds, great environments -

quote:

First crime by the NCAA is aligning State with UGA. Second by NCAA/ESPN is putting them in morning games. They had to know these two would be the best matchup. Would’ve been a great watch on Saturday/Sunday nights!


No kidding - I’m an lsu fan so naturally believe there is a conspiracy against us by both espn and ncaa - and my paranoia extends to the sec in some cases. We have two supers as all sec match ups - I’m telling you - they plotted that shite out on purpose!!! those bastards try to make us canabilize ourselves!!!!

If I choke down my hate ( and disappointment on season) sure will be something to possibly see 5 sec teams in Omaha.
quote:

Lmao sadly i can see lsu fans doing this


Well - the little bastard most likely started it
I like picking on Aggies as much as anything - but feel like after that last game in Tiger Stadium we should sit this one out for a bit
quote:

It’s Hugh Freeze to Auburn all over again.


Are we seeing a trend here? And why are yall so pissed at us - let’s not forget Auburn took tuberville from you as well-

Not too mention - we elevated a guy yall fired to HC - so it should balance out right? I mean - disregard he won the NC at lsu - after yall fired him - that’s besides the point.

Half arse is all you got when you’re already out the door.


This is a valid point. Unintentionally - I don’t think Kiffin would have treated it like some situation like some mail in bowl game - I believe he would have made every effort to do all he could to coach the team as he had all season - but even with those intentions - would have been plenty of slippage, and have to think def would affect their play.

Look - I hate ole miss more than any other school in SEC, in the U.S. - in the galaxy- but I honestly cannot blame them for not allowing him to coach the playoffs.
Take away any emotional baring on it, any talk of going to a rival and all of that from an operational standpoint - I would figure operationally just too much distraction, risk, etc.





Hmmmm- read this and realized I was watching softball.

Damn what a depressing season…..

re: 5/22 Tournament Outlook

Yeah - I think you are right, - seems like maybe if you have two sec teams on cusp of national seed battling it out - it has a little influence

But almost like they expect or accept there is always a good chance none of your potential national seeds will even be in the ch game.

My main question - if y’all are so happy for having Pete- why do so many keep whining about Kiffin?
