I could completely see a scenario where UCLA is number one all year and doesn't win it all.
I'll be shocked if UCLA wins it all. They just wont be as battle tested as the SEC & ACC teams. The best thing they'll have going for them is they have Omaha experience from last year with essentially the same lineup.Quote:

Gonna be 4 interesting games in 5 days
Arizona State on Friday
Virginia Tech on Saturday
UCLA on Sunday
USM on Tuesday
3 Regional Teams most likely and one is a Marquee team
I actually had a big UPig baseball fan/season ticket holder complain to me about how easy the UPig schedule is. His comment was that State was the only "big team" coming to Fayetteville this year.
Believe it or not, Arkansas has not had a losing team since 2016. Van Horn has averaged 20 SEC wins in that span and 4 CWS appearances. But won no championship.Quote:

For as impressive as DVH has been, I would not trade the championship. But DVH is basically the hexed version of Skip Bertman. Imagine SEC coaches meetings with Bianco purposely blinding him with a Giant 2022 Ring. BOC with a Giant Ring. LSU Johnson with two Giant Rings. At least Vitello and his Boyfriend moved to San Francisco and that Ring is out of view.
Well they play State/Fla/Georgia/Mississippi/OU at home...its not like they Mizzou and SC at home altho they do play bothQuote:

Not too cocky where they go in and aren't prepared for a tougher game mentally but cocky enough to go on with an attitude. Harder than you'd think but having experience helps tremendously with thisQuote:
