If you are just satisfied with going to Omaha to soak in the atmosphere, poke your chest out, etc, then what are thinking? I would think most fans want a championship! Why do you want to keep saying, we went to Omaha in such and such year....

I was taking the brunt of it when we were losing badly. I joined January 2009, before the school, before Jim Ellis, etc. I took it upon my self to talk baseball with these other baseball fan bases. It comes down to conf champs or natl champs. We have been one but it was 1989 and not a natl champ. I along with many want both.

But..

Would you rather have a year like Vanderbilt last year, dominating the SEC all year, and falling short of Omaha

or

a 2007 MSU type year where you make Omaha but go two and out.

So you gotta choose, which year would you prefer

MSU 54-12 (26-3).. loses in Supers

MSU 38-22 (15-13).. 0-2 in Omaha

Given those choices gimme 54-12, no Omaha


ETA saw where the diary stated something similar on this point. Agreed I'd take national runner up over SEC Champ, but Vandy year over 0-2 in Omaha
