Thank you.

Football and baseball are fundamentally different sports. Apples and oranges.

Example: OM barely made the 64 team field in '22. And got hot and won it all. Do any sober fans think the 64th ranked football team would plow through the competition and claim natty?

Well yeah, they're completely different. For one thing, Ole Miss wasn't remotely #64, as they were a 3 seed from a big conference. They got an at-large bid, something none of the 4 seeds got.

They also got injured players back for the stretch. They started out #1, so people did expect something of them in the preseason.

I think the problem with that comparison is that LSU isn't missing anyone to injury right now, like they did (and like Wake Forest is). We're just not performing as expected. Most thought Kling would step up, Hurd and Guidry would pitch solidly, etc.
