    What makes you all think MSU was going to be the #1 seed in 2020 regionals? That year Vandy had the battleship roster Austin Martin, Rocker, Leiter, and company. Ole Miss had Hoglund and Booger. Louisville was preseason #1 with two number 1 picks and the #1 overall pick for 2021. Florida was #1 at last poll. Arkansas had a golden spikes guy to challenge Austin Martin. UGA was loaded too.

    Plus MSU was ranked 12-to-15 when the last poll happened. So no worries about being the accursed #1 Seed. MSU was Heading to Regional Host, for sure. Perfect dark horse, with players that did win the championship in 2021.

    MSU wins their regional to face #1 overall seed Ole Miss in Supers, then sweeps in two games. Shutout by MacLeod and a Gem by Bednar. Tanner Allen just plays as DH in the Regionals coming back from foot injury. The Coke Guy drinks Draino on live TV.

    Then to Omaha with Vandy and Louisville with all the Gannett papers saying Vandy are the best and MSU only has 1000:1 odds. When MSU wins it all, Gannett Pravda runs the headlines, "2020 College Baseball ends Ole Miss on top of last Regular Season Poll, Omaha is just a prize for Hot, Streaky Teams"

    Not sure why you chose to make this response to "us". I never once said anything about us being the number 1 seed. I just stated that Tennessee was the best team last year. Cujo said that we were the best in 1989. Strange post.
