Yep, we choked when we got on that stage last year.
Yep, it sucks pretty bad. I really think we are the most cursed fan base in the country.
Was not rooting for Vandy. Now we're the only team left without a title in a Big 3 sport...
The drought will end in January (fingers crossed)Quote:

I agree. I seriously think we'll win more than one in baseball pretty soon.Quote:

I doubt they even score against him and we win 1-0 in that first game but I digress. Virginia was 10x the team Vandy was and Vandy beat them. We were a better team then UCLA but their coach out coached and out prepared our coaches in that series plain and simple.Quote:

Let me re-phrase. They were much better than anybody AT THE CWS. They would have been beaten in a lot of ballparks, but not that one. They were a very solid team though.Quote:

I think the majority of our fans deep down agree with me that we didn't put our best foot forward once we were on the stage. Surely you don't think a team that had averaged 2-1 wins the whole post season is really 8-0 better then us?
No, we didn't even make the CWS. You said UCLA was head and shoulders better then anyone in the CWS. OSU was in the CWS and I was making a point. Had OSU beaten us to make the championship series, OSU would have beaten UCLA.Quote:
