Not even close. The '08 and '09 teams were much better because of the offensive productivity. Those 2 teams saw the likes of Matt Clark, Blake Dean, Jared Mitchell, Leon Landry, DJ Lemahieu, Ryan Schimpf, Sean Ochinko, Micah Gibbs, Mikie Mahtook at the plate. Lots of long balls. Long balls = more fun to watch. Ranaudo, Verdugo, Byrd, Coleman, Ott, Alsup etc. on the bump. Came from obscurity to break the SEC win streak record and send the box out in style with a trip to Omaha. That momentum led to a title in '09. Hadn't truly felt like a top national program since Tulane sent us home in the '01 Supers. Laid the groundwork for what we are seeing today.
