No, MS State - even if we get a home win over Alabama - is no Juggernaut. We still have vast improvements to make, on both sides of the ball, before we go and get all lofty on ourselves. Let's just take a deep breath and savor being 4-0 at the moment.

I knew the Rebs would still be explosive on offense this season but that their defense wouldn't be on par with the 2025 team. They proved that weakness on Saturday.
Despite the lopsided loss, OM should still have a great season. With the exception of Texas, all their toughest games are at home. They could end up 10-2 but they'd need to play their best to beat GA again in Oxford. That game is likely a 'must win' if they want to return to the playoffs.

And they got "Croomed" in that game.

It's a huge game for both teams and I only give Bama the edge for two reasons.

1. Alabama is used to big games and seems better adjusted under pressure.
2. The now characteristic, bone-headed coaching by Lebby in key moments could hurt State.

And for those who are going swoop in and defend Lebby, you can't defend his vapid stupidity at the end of the 2nd Quarter in the Missouri game. He cost the team 3 points! Against better competition, that 3 points could be the winning margin.

And the Sooners had a 14-16 conference mark at the start of the regionals. Goes to show it's how you finish.

Winning the CWS requires talent, timing, chemistry and a bit of luck. Every team that previously won, they had those four items. Unfortunately for you guys in 2018, luck smiled on Oregon State.

What happened to Sour Power?

It's like the road traveler's Disney World!

I think NC is capable of making the finals and pushing it to three games.

Congrats on your team's win over GA. I still think the Bulldogs are the more talented team but OU is playing some of the cleanest baseball at the CWS. Your Sooners earned that extra day of rest.
