    I would stay away from looking at who people beat in a short season. Baseball is a volatile sport but usually OVER THE LONG haul will favor the most talented teams.

    Louisville is a fantastic team and a national title contender. Ole Miss beating them is a tremendous accomplishment.

    That being said, due to the nature of baseball's volatility, you have to look at the talent of the players on the team and not just who've they've beaten unless it's late in the year and the team clearly has an outstanding resume.

    Ole Miss is a nice team, but they simply don't stack up talent wise with top 15 teams this year and were of no threat to win the SEC or Natty.

    MSU was a level better.

    So in the same post, you say you can't accurately judge a team and can't jump to conclusions in the early season and by the end of the post you do just that by concluding OM doesn't stack up against elite teams.... based off of early-season play.

    What you say about how guessing how good teams are early is impossible is actually correct, but then you are guilty of doing just that. More than likely just because they are an in-state rival.

    Ahh so you?re the exception. LULZ! You?re so ?special?.

    Based off your post count and the amount of time you are on this board. I doubt your false sense of knowledge is in high demand.

    Since you never seem to back that up when asked what gives you the merit to make that kind of claim, I?ll just consider you equal to Austin Powers if James Bond is considered to ?know more?.

    What a joke.
