I just wanted to know why baseball can be compared to Football and Basketball as far as being a major college sport?
Outside of LSU (where baseball is No. 2) and a handful of other schools, I don't think baseball can even remotely be considered in the Big 3.
In fact overall nationwide, women's hoops which is ridiculed here, is more popular than baseball in per-game attendance and t.v. ratings and it's not even really that close.
I think we as LSU fans like to pat ourselves on the back sometimes about what great fans we are, when in fact in football and hoops I don't see that to be the case.
But as far as baseball goes there are no other fans like LSU's. Not many other schools are fans living and dying with a sport the rest of the country scarcely notices. It's truly a special relationship.
