19 of those regular season wins you're yapping about came against absolute garbage non-conference teams, mostly at home .. We won the SEC regular season title .. great .. then we struggled at the plate in the tourney and needed teams to implode with errors to reach the semis .. played against crap in the regionals and needed two 2-0 wins against a nobody to advance .. this season was a wolf in sheep's clothing and yet another aberration, thanks to creative scheduling ..

winning the SEC is no small accomplishment.
Yeah, people will have to take that, this year...

I believe it is safe to say cpm will never win another game ever at college world series in the future it's time for a change, he has done all he can do for the program

Sorry I hit the wrong number. It's 0-3. Thanks for the correction.

Well, there are two SEC schools who have managed to notch titles since we won a game in Omaha. One of them twice. If you aren't winning titles, you aren't setting anyone's standard. Period.
Again, you're stuck in the Bertman era. That will never happen again for LSU or Southern Cal. The point is no one team is "setting the standard." We've been to Omaha three times in 6 years. That's as good as anybody. If you can't understand that, you will never enjoy watching us compete.

We won the SEC only because we didnt play Vandy or Florida

The predominance of big swings lately, leading to lots of Ks and fly outs. This was a problem throughout the regional and super regional, especially with RISP. It wasn't quite as bad today, but there were still several big wiffs. I'm glad we got a homer today, but you can't live on power in this park. That is a recipe to lose.
That's not our style at all.
Have you not watched this team all year?

I just think it's funny that you think a reasonable standard for the program is to be "the standard" of the sport.
Ok. LSU once was the standard of the sport for an entire decade. You wouldn't like to see the program maintain something close to that, at least? I didn't say that was realistic, but the further the program gets from it, the more it just becomes history that has nothing to do with the program now.

1) we won the regular season title, that is huge and destroys your first point.
2) the SECt meant nothing for us.
3) who cares who you beat to get to Omaha, its a huge accomplishment. It's only one loss though, far from over.

LSU was good for the great majority of the year.
To say it was a result of creative scheduling is downright funny.

This team is soft. Did not answer the bell when adversity struck. Instead, they moped around and went through the motions. Really disappointed with that.
That's the sport of baseball. It's not football. In 97 Bama hung 20 runs on us in a game in the final series of the season. We flushed it. Moved on and won the CWS. It happens. Baseball momentum can change inning to inning game to game. It's a whole 'nother animal.

Yes. Which is why I am mystified at the change in the post season. Did you watch guys not being patient at the plate and swinging wildly through the UNCW games and the ULL series? Selective memory.

You still think we're trying to play gorilla ball, so obviously you haven't watched THIS team, this year.

the 90s was one of the greatest run of a team in almost all of college sports. You can even compare it to some of the great runs in MLB history. To expect LSU to have anything close to what we did in the 90s is stupid. South Carolina had an amazing run in the early 2010s and it didn't come close to what we did in the 90s. In the past 5 years, LSU has been a top 8 seed 4 times, made it to Omaha twice, there are very few teams who can say this.

You sound like the dad who is excited that his kid got a participation award. It's not out of line for a fan base as strong as LSU's to demand the excellence out of the program.

"participation award"? You do realize we made it to Omaha right? I swear there is zero perspective in some of our fans.

Are you serious ? 11 of our SEC wins came against teams with losing records in the SEC .. We struggled in the SEC tournament at best .. then we needed solid pitching to fend off mighty UNC-Wilmington in the regionals and a walk off to save us in game 1 against ULL .. we have been playing with smoke and mirrors for weeks ..

What does what I want have to do with the real world and my expectations?

It's not.

I don't think you can make an argument for a single program in the country who is clearly stronger than LSU's program. There are 5-10 who are in the same elite category.
Only an unreasonable person would think that is not good enough. You aren't being reasonable. It's as simple as that.

You can't figure out your point. Are you saying the guys are slumping as a result of an unexplainable change in their approach. Or, are you saying that PM's style doesn't match what it takes to win in the CWS.
You are all over the place. Try to make a consistent argument.
