For Coastal.
I have heard this narrative all day on all of these interviews.
There are more lsu fans in Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida than what they think. It's not just Louisiana.
Are they doing this to pump the team up?
I guess it's a good thing when you're on the same level as some other legendary franchises like the Yankees,Lakers, Patriots and the Cowboys,.

The LSU fan base is still small when you combine everyone else.
They’re the underdog, people love an underdog story.
It’s understandable that narrative it out there

Its a slow 2 days waiting for the next games, so they are looking for talking points. Embrace it. It feels good to be the alabama of college baseball. You think it bothered them that everyone else was rooting against them?

Who is pushing that?
A better question would be why do so many people like being a victim?

My brother. It is LSU vs anybody else who watches this game. You're about to watch the equivalent of a usually downtrodden P5 school take on Alabama in the national championship game. I don't say G5 because Baseball is a bit more fluid.
Nobody else but us wants to see LSU win.

Because it’s a great story to push! If they weren’t playing the Tigers I’d been on the train as well.

All the casual fans think this is Boise State vs Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl. It’s little Coastal vs perineal power LSU
The real college baseball fans know Coastal isn’t a Cinderella. But ESPN gonna sell it for viewers

And had CC dropped a game or two throughout the CWS, then this wouldn't be a huge story.
This has nothing to do with CC vs LSU. This is about, can CC go 28-0 to win the CWS Championship.

Only want unbiased umpires. Don’t care about the media and national fans.
The announcers have been biased but it’s not like they’re actually playing in the game.

You should appreciate what a good problem this is.
Most of the country is rooting for CC because unless you follow college baseball regularly, most people have never heard of them. But everyone has heard of LSU
We are the Alabama, NY Yankees, NE Patriots of college baseball. Of course the casual fan with no real rooting interest is pulling for the perceived underdog.
Be thankful that we are so respected and feared as a program, the casual fans is pulling against us because they want to see what they perceive as a monumental upset.

Media types get lazy and push a hot take relentlessly, in part because they all like to follow the conventional wisdom they try to set.

Ratings.
It’s all about the ratings.
Ratings = money

Does not matter. LSU just has to execute the game plan. Play Tiger baseball and win the next two games. Take the trophy back to BR. End of story.

Because LSU is to college baseball as
Bama is to college football.
