Our path to a Regional...

If Florida fired Kevin O'Sullivan, we should introduce him in Starkville as our new coach that afternoon.

Obviously I would pretend I never said anything negative about him, like I previous did for Ben Howland, the Dallas Cowboys, and Jeff Lebby.

Correct. If they were ever stupid enough to fire Kevin O'Sullivan we would need the university plane in Gainesville to pick him up same day.

If there was even a smolder near his job we should be on the phone with his agent asap.

12. Mississippi State
Overall: 16-12, 1-8 in SEC
Weekend record: 3-4

Mississippi State’s record may not be pretty with a 16-12 overall mark and a rough 1-8 start in SEC play, but the story behind those numbers is far less alarming than it may appear. The Bulldogs have faced an incredibly tough slate of top 10 teams to begin league play. Their series losses to Texas and Oklahoma were narrow, with the Bulldogs being outscored by just 13 runs over six games. Against LSU, they were swept but lost by a combined three runs in the first two contests. While its record doesn’t reflect it, Mississippi State has shown that they can compete with some of the best teams in the country, and if they can tighten things up, they’re more than capable of turning their season around.

This ranking is SEC teams only. So we are bottom quarter of the league.

Tighten up = get out of their own way

"Our path to a regional is not very likely."

Understatedly he said.

Nothing stopping them from buying tickets like the rest of us.

[Pancho]

would they give an SEC team a 4 seed?

[EdwardDrayton]

Correct. If they were ever stupid enough to fire Kevin O'Sullivan we would need the university plane in Gainesville to pick him up same day.

Oh Lord. Then I'd have to find a way to stop hating him.

It would save his job. ******

I think we'd all get over it pretty quickly. He may be a prick, but he'd be our prick. Kind of like early years Dan.

What explains his issues at Florida, tho? Outside the weird rumors of infidelity, obv.

Do tell. I had not heard that.

Draft took a lot of talent so they were young last season. This year they lost their 2 best SP’s so far

Rich, happy and less drive? Not saying that's it, but if it is, let's not pad his retirement and suffer 3+ more years.

[EdwardDrayton]

Need to settle on who it will be and right quick like as we say in the South. Cuz the only path to a regional for us is through the Land of Oz.

UPDATE: We met our benchmark against South Carolina to be on the pace for 13-17.

...is not very likely. I'm going to be optimistic about our 7 remaining SEC series:

• South Carolina - let's say we take 2/3✅
• @ Alabama - maybe we get 1
• Florida - they're 1-8 just like us, so we ought to win 2/3 at home
• @ Auburn - again maybe 1
• Kentucky - they have a losing SEC record right now, but it's at home, so let's get 2/3
• Ole Miss - let's be super optimistic and say we take 2/3
• @ Missouri - they've had our number lately even when terrible, but let's say we get 2/3

Still a tough road ahead of us, and I'm not sure that 13-17 gets us in anyway, so we probably need to take another from somebody.

As you alluded, possible. But highly improbable. What this series win does do is he keeps those in his 'let him finish out the season' corner. Otherwise we might have had a quite eventful Monday.

[Pancho]

He had shades of hugh freeze at the plantation on his face friday night in the press conference. this buys him some time.
