Do you think it would be fair to call the CWS home run one of the greatest plays in the history of college sports?

Not just college sports, I'd say all of sports. It's just a shame that college baseball doesn't get the attention that other sports do, because that play deserves way more recognition that it gets.

+1

If this had happened at the Major League level, you would see it and hear about it all the time. Still it is without question one of the greatest plays in sports history.

Hell Yes! Warren provided us with one of the greatest moments in Tiger History. He should never have to wait in line at a concession stand or urinal.

Well...let me take off the P&G glasses and ask why it would be one of the greatest moments of ALL TIME?

I know its a walk off, but is it more memorable than Joe Carter's Walk off to win the WS?

I am a HUGE college baseball fan, but in the realm of all sports, I am not sure this moment was "one of the greatest moments of all time". Just my $.02.

If you judge based on the meaningfulness of the play, then Warren Morris' home run beats out 'Hail Flutie' by leaps and bounds, and we see the damn 'Hail Flutie' play nearly every week during CFB season.

It all has to do with how college baseball isn't that popular. If college baseball were as popular as college basketball then you'd see it played every week during the season as well.

For those of us that didn't follow College Ball very closely until recently, can someone please explain to me the significance of this play?

Walk-off HR to win the Championship for LSU. I think it is the only walk-off in CWS Championship game history.

GREAT play....

it was better because they were down at that point.

It wasn't a solo shot in a tied game, they were losing and he won it for them. EVERYTIME I watch that clip, I get full goosebumps
