overcame unbelievable odds.



They were preseason #1....that's hardly an underdog story

Yeah, I'd put this in with the "frustrating" parts.

We were preseason #1, we were SUPPOSED to win it all. That's what the preseason prediction was.

We did not win the SEC regular season title, that was a disappointment.

Imagine being preseason #1 in football, NOT winning the SEC title, not making it to Atlanta even, but we make the playoffs. We then win the playoffs.
That ultimately would be a great season and we'd have a title. It would not be greatest in school history, because we've had teams with more accomplishments along the way.

To the person who says "but look who they beat"... if you're the greatest ever, you don't look at who you beat, because you're SUPPOSED to beat everyone. Saying we had to overcome Wake Forest- that means it was up for discussion that we'd lose to them. We've had seasons where it didn't matter who we'd play, the general understanding was that we'd smoke them all.

You simply can’t compare baseball and football like that.
The best team in football has a far greater chance to win every game they play than baseball.

The best team in baseball will lose games every year.
Every baseball team that has ever played lost games to teams less talented to them. In ‘23 some of this could be because of the pitching injuries, but some of is just “that’s baseball”.
