I think the SEC has become the standard for college baseball, especially since the 1990's when UGA became one of the first teams besides LSU to win the CWS.

Since then, FL, S. Carolina, Vandy, MS State, OhMiss and UT have all become CWS Champs.

So I think you could argue that - along with still being the top football conference - we are also tops in baseball.

As happy as I am with the Bullies taking all three games from OhMiss, Florida sweeping Arkansas at home is a shocker to me.
What happened there Hogs??
I care. It's been exciting with conference play in full swing. MS State plays at Oxford against OM, so I'm hoping for a sweep or at least a series win.

I can't remember the last time we swept the Doors, so this feels good.
Having Kubiack as the OC didn't hurt either. It is good that Seattle prevailed, as they will be losing Kubiack to the Raiders.
Yep. With what the Texans D was getting off Patriot turnovers, CJ Stroud would toss it right back to them on the very next possession. If not for his 5 interceptions, I think Houston wins that game and makes it to the Super Bowl.
Two reasons:
1. A weak season schedule
2. Getting a lot of lucky breaks
The Seahawks D has been next level this season and they definitely took Drake Maye out of any comfort zone he'd been enjoying. He's a decent QB but when the Pats couldn't run the ball, that's when he and his team were doomed.

What in the hell are you babbling about? Having conversations with phantom MS State fans after consuming too much Jack, perhaps?

I don't know of a single State fan saying any of things you claim. Most of us know Jeff Lebby wouldn't be able to manage a car wash, much less coach a football game.

But hey, you keep hitting those bottles and seeing double.

I don't see any team beating Indiana.

Heck of a game and season, Rebs. You can hold your heads high.
That's a dumb and untrue statement.
Funny Reb but we wouldn't want to deprive you of some competition every now and then. We dominated you guys in the 1990's and even though you're enjoying a golden age right now, you'll come down to Earth eventually.

Per your suggestion though, having Lebby run our football program the way he's running it, it's about the same as having no program at all. All your ilk has to do is keep hoping Lebby stays on the job.
I'll be charitible and not refer to Lebby as "that idiot," even though that's what I think of him. Let's instead say he's "unfit" to be a head coach.

Unfortunately, MS State will likely have to endure another horrible season with him at the helm before firing his incompetent butt!
Just enjoying a coffee and mocking all you fools who argued that MS State getting a bowl spot was a good thing because of "a free check and practice."

So how did that turn out, geniuses?

Let's see what we got:
1. Humiliating defeat
2. Losing our future QB to injury
3. Demonstrating Lebby Ball fail
4. Putting a loss on our bowl record
5. Embarraasing the program
6. Likely losing potential recruits

What we gained:
1. Free check
2. Ridicule

Yep, such a big boost for the program! Illustrating the terrible prep and coaching of one Jeff Lebby and the lousy decision of AD Zac Selmon, accepting a bowl we had no business being in.

You fools that want to keep putting Lebby on some kind of pedestal, I'll just keep laughing at you, since that's good for the soul, because watching MSU football certainly is not.

So put your money where your mouth is and defend Lebby now. This should be entertaining.
I'd wager Miami is in that category, having won two games they weren't projected to win and playing stingy defense. I think any of the four remaining teams can win it. Of those four, I think Indiana looks the most dominate right now.
No, the committee did not where Notre Dame is concerned.
Miami deserved to go ahead by virtue of beating ND, who also lost to ATM. Those were the biggest games for ND and they lost both. They only beat a ranked Louisville team afterwards, so no big wins over higher ranked opponents.
