I sure hope you are correct Russian.

I understand that top 10 baseball programs have down years. Skip had a few too. We are in the moment of a season but after the season is done , fans will renew their spirit for 2019.

LSU has finished number 1 or 2 for seven seasons since 1991. Six titles. I think fans feel entitled for more and feel low esteem when the team is struggling. A part of them is a part of me mentality.

Hopefully, this years adversity will build toughness for the next couple of seasons.

I'm pretty sure I'm correct about next season.

Rabalais has a good article today in the Advocate about several "blue bloods" baseball programs struggling this season.

TCU has been to 4 straight CWS and they may not make the NCAA postseason this year.

Virginia has a 14 consecutive season streak of NCAA appearances and likely won't make the post-season this year unless they win the ACC tournament (auto qualifier).

Miami missed the tournament last season for the first time in 44 years (!). And unless they win the ACC tournament, they likely won't go again this season since they have a losing record overall this season.

Rice won't make the post-season. It's likely neither will Arizona State.

Southern Cal, which has the most CWS championships at 12, has a losing record this season and a RPI of 117. They won't be in the post-season.

LSU baseball fans are so entitled.....especially the ones who post on this board and don't even go to games.

LSU missed a regional in 1988. They didn't miss another until Laval's last year (and it cost him). This will be PM's second miss since winning the CWS (not a good sign).
