I’ve noticed a trend in college baseball

A lot of times a crazy good team with incredible talent will have an unbelievable year in the regular season and then inexplicably shite the bed in the postseason. The following year, that same school will have a less talented but more experienced team that ends up winning it all.
Texas was incredible in 2004 but lost the CWS finals to a less talented Cal Sate Fullerton team. Texas wasn’t as talented in 2005 but ended up winning it all and going 5-0 in Omaha.
Vanderbilt did it 2013 by breaking a record for SEC games won and then failed to make it to Omaha. They returned to Omaha and won it all with a less talented team in 2014.
Virginia did this cycle in 2014 and 2015
Florida did this cycle in 2016 and 2017.
Maybe this year will be Arkansas’s turn to do it? They were the #1 team all year last year and then shite the bed and failed to get to Omaha. They look fantastic at the CWS right now after hammering Stanford.
Maybe next year will be Tennessee’s turn.

LSU went 57-11 in 2013 but went 0-2 in Omaha then came back in 2014 and lost in a home regional to Houston.

Vandy in 13.
South Carolina in 00.
A&M in 89 and 93.
LSU has never been the favorite in the championship game. Maybe 97 because Bama used an extra pitcher and Vaz was out.
It’s our turn.

Seriously they will be just as good next season they lose the 1st baseman and bullpen guys but the out side of that they are stacked.
