Who is the college baseball equivalent of ND football and Duke basketball

In the sense that the media always loves them, their players are often overhyped, and most fans other than their alumni do not like them?
Is it USC? (possibly but they haven't done much lately)
Miami? (I think they were in the 80s/90s but again they don't dominate like they used to)
Florida State? (I don't think they are disliked to the level of ND or Duke)
LSU? (Possibly, but LSU fans are loved by everyone outside the SEC except Tulane and ULL).
Is there a clear winner or is college baseball just not popular enough nationwide for enough people to care?

No one cares enough to hate anybody.

Not true. I hate Wayne Graham and Augie Garrido.

Not popular enough.

I follow college baseball extensively and really cant think of anyone.

There are no teams that really get love like that. Maybe Texas, but not even them usually.
But as a conference, the ACC is consistently overrated.

Closest is USC. All time leader in titles, but haven't done shite in a long time. LSU baseball would be similar to Florida football.

No one cares about baseball outside of a few SEC towns and maybe parts of Orange County and rural Oregon.

Because they're consistently competitive, and if they don't win the championship every single year, they are overrated/overhyped.. or something

The way we've been screwed by the selection committee in our borderline years would indicate that this is not the case.

Rice is the closest answer.

It's college baseball... Do people really take that seriously?

I love college baseball myself, but this is the correct answer.

Used to be Stanford from the 80's on...
But maybe that's just a West Coast thing - like how Rice wouldn't register with us.
