I don't think teams should dogpile after super regionals.
Just my opinion though.

Probably just relieved to have been gifted the series

They haven't won anything yet. They are 1 of 8 teams remaining. When they're the only one left; let them dog pile

There's a chance someone could get hurt at the bottom of that which could potentially frick your chances in the CWS.

I'm pretty neutral on dogpiles in the supers. On the one hand I see your argument which makes sense with the added fact that for a lot of the team it's the final home game of the year.
On the other hand, if one or more of your starters gets hurt in one you are gonna be pissed (as is the coach).

i can see teams like DBU doing the dogpile. This is Texas's 34th appearance in the CWS. no need.

A lot of teams actually practice a dogpile with their closer on the mound. There's actually an art to it... Catcher protects the pitcher in a fetal position , infielfders protect catcher n pitcher and everyone else on top. It's dangerous but one of the reasons why I love college baseball

This is SC's 10th. We dogpiled last year when we got to Omaha. Won the title. And dogpiled this year by getting back to Omaha. It's like getting to the Final 4 in basketball and sure it has its dangers but when fans rush the court in basketball do all the home players fly off the court before the fans get there or do they risk it and celebrate?

To my knowledge Texas fans have never rushed the court in basketball (though we do not have a great history in the sport). I guess it is just the culture of the school.

My point is... I thought it was a classless act to say "act like we've been there"
eta: I could see if they were winning game 2 by 10 runs or something... But game 3, bot 9, tying run at the plate... C'mon

Indeed. Didn't you see that text book tackle by our catcher?

No dog-pile until you win the CWS. As Bum Philips once said, "Act like you've been there before."
And in Texas' case, the horns have been to Omaha 33 times in the past...we've been there before.
