"That's Baseball"

I despise this quote from Smoke but...

Arky got swept by Moo State... who is/was in freefall mode

9-9 puts us one game out of first place in the west

There are only 6 SEC teams in the top 25... and only one of them is anything close to a lock.

We are a young and inexperienced team. That means somedays we will look like world beaters and some days we will get blown out.

This is not football. Scholarship limits and the smaller teams mean many more teams are competitive at college baseball these days, compared to college football.

The ceiling for this team is probably 15-15 SEC play and a 2 seed in a regional.

Few teams could survive losing their #2 starter (Walker) and multiple position starters THIS YEAR, as well as everyone that left after last year.

Baseball is a game where the best teams in the pros lose 60 times in the regular season, and getting a hit 3 times out of 10 is a great player. Imagine a QB that completes 30 percent of his passes, or a basketball player that hits 30 percent of his field goals. Yet... a baseball player that gets a hit 30 percent of time time is considered a great player.

This is NOT a Les Miles situation. Certainly in a couple of years it could be. But this is a team that is rebuilding. Walker doesn't get hurt, we have three legit weekend starters. Totally different team.
