Agreed. Which is why I really don't understand statements like this:


I'm not going to measure the success of a program off a team who has had the best 3 year stretch in college baseball. That is unrealistic expectations for all college baseball teams. If we are going to measure our success next to SCs success we would be the worse team these last three years no matter what we did. I think we should say ok here is the state of our program and this is what should happen this year. We meet those expectations good, if we don't crap. But don't judge the state of a program based on what another team is doing, judge the sate of a program off of what it has done and what it should have done.

You know, now that I think about it..... I retract my earlier statement where I said I'd pull for USCe.

It's a dumb reason and this isn't football.

They can't pass us up in baseball!

Geaux Cats!


Yes, I'm serious when I say this. We beat them and I want them to get a 3rd straight CWS championship? What the hell was I on?

Overlooking the numerous contradictions that exist within this statement, that is some pretty twisted logic.

I'm pulling for USC, I guess I just want to see the SEC team win. Plus I don't care about comparing their dynasty to our dynasty, no matter how many championships USCe wins, it won't take away from what LSU did in the 90s and how great of a team that was. I'll just say congrats USC you did one hell of a job, and focus on the next season when we take out our revenge.

Just ancy for football season I guess.


I do still think the OP should've titled this thread a little better though. The popcorn emoticon makes it look like he's trolling but I don't think he is.


To the OP..... sorry I called you a moron. Sincerely.

ok so lets base our success on the most successful baseball team in the last 40 years. Ok so lets call ALL of college baseball horrible because they can't compete with USC.

don't measure your success next to the success of other teams. Make your own expectations and base your teams success on those.

next year I think a good expectation is for us to make it to omaha. If we don't do that we should look at the state of our program, if we do make it then great lets improve next year.

don't say if we don't do better then USC then our program needs to turn around.

what part of this is twisted logic?

We won the SEC


Really??? I bet if you ask Moo State, they will give you a diff answer...However, we won the SEC in football last year, but I would rather have finished it the way BAMA did! Just sayin

So, by your logic, you are saying we were the best football team in the SEC last year???

Don't hijack this and turn it into a 1/9 thread.

It's been covered, trust me.

SC needs to do a lot more than win three championships to top our program.

One has to question how USCe is getting all those recruits on their campus. Are they just doing a better job at evaluating projected players who can develop in CFB and won't be high picks?

I mean, look at us. Who would've thought going into Jacoby's Junior year we'd be saying he isn't the best player on the team?

But USCe has been a far better program than LSU the past decade. I don't think that can be argued.

It's funny too because the atmosphere and Omaha is changing to the likings of USCe.
