Well to be fair, Texas isn't doing themselves any favors in the PR department.

I agree with this post and echo it's sentiment.
There's a way to do something with integrity and then there's what Texas did. It shouldn't be shrugged off.
And I'd further argue that they way they handled this was not only a poke in the eye to ATM and the SEC, but rained on Tennessee's moment in the sun.
As the hosts of The Morning Rush broadcast expained, "Texas made Gameday 3 all about themselves."

Lol. Everytime a team wins the CWS that a rival fan doesn't like, they have to pull out this lame asterix argument.
To that I state "whatever."
They have the trophy now and that's what matters. If FSU wanted to stop UT from winning the CWS, they had more than one chance.

re: Let’s stop with the Schloss is some terrible guy narrative.

I agree.
Instead of making Schloss out to be a Darth Vader type, these same people need to ask themselves if they'd leave for a rival school if they got the kind of money that Texas offered Schloss.
I heard it was something to the tune of 35 million over 10 years.
So who here wouldn't take (much less seriously consider taking) that kind of payday?
And yeah, I think it sucks for ATM! But sweet moolah is sweet moolah, just ask Uncle Rico.

re: The list of Only SEC teams without a CWS championship

Wow, only 5 SEC schools have not won a CWS. With the exception of the old Pac 10, I don't think any other conference has ever had this level of baseball success.
I think ATM, Arkansas and Kentucky are in good places to make another run. Alabama is slowly but surely getting within striking distance.
As for Auburn, it's a flip of the coin. Does anyone know their cumulative W-L record in the CWS? I only know they've been 6 times but never advanced to the title.

Arky will have a title. DVH is too good of a coach and that program is always in the national title discussion.

Big congrats to both teams tonight.
To the Vols, you brung it after that opening loss and won the title. You totally deserve that #1 ranking.
To the Aggies, big hat tip to a great team that was just as worthy. You will get another moment on this stage.
Heads up!
And the best part? Whoever prevailed, the SEC now has 5 CWS titles in a row.

Seeing Arkansas ranked below Oklahoma is surprising. Nothing against Oklahoma but Arkansas is much more scenic, with some of the best state parks in the South.

ESPN can frick themselves!
It's not the MCWS.
There is no such damn thing as the MCWS!
It is called the CWS, just like it's ALWAYS been called until you woke shites at your so-called "progressive" network decided to try an elevate boring womens softball by calling their national title game the WCWS. Eat a bag of d**ks, ESPN!!!
It's CWS and the other thing is boring womens fricking softball.

Have faith man. This team of yours hasn't quit all year. Stay positive! Champions jump at the chance to play and win a series like this one. They will!
re: Ugliest state in the sec?
Posted by Maroonster on 6/21/24 at 8:17 pm
Interestingly, my answer is Texas as both the most beatiful and the most ugly.
The NE, Central parts of the Lone Star State are scenic and have great towns, cities and natural beauty, whereas the SE, NW and West of the Pecos areas are some of the most barren, hot and ugly places I've seen.
Outside of Texas, parts of Georgia are just ghastly.

A big congrats to ATM on a dominating performance and making the CWS finals. Your guys are playing at an amazing level and as conference brethren, we couldn't be more proud. I've even seen LSU fans piling on the compliments. Best of luck to you guys! It will be another exciting all SEC show.

I think a lot of us had been waiting to see if the Vols had what it took to make a true title run. And after what we've seen in the postseason, they have won a lot of doubters over. Tennessee plays some damn fine baseball!
