This happens in every single dynasty in sports. Hell even CEOs. Everyone hates the Chiefs. The NFL has a script the Chiefs win. Everyone hated Bama. Everyone hated the Pats. Everyone hated Golden State in 2016. Everyone hates Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Elon (besides some conservatives), Larry Ellison.

Most hatred in the world stems from jealousy. Not all, but most. An example of not being jealousy was my former boss. He was such a pompous prick. If you weren't wearing the nicest suits and Allen Edmonds, he judged you. If you put a logo 1 pixel offcentered he'd get pissed. Meanwhile he didn't actually do any work himself. Just listened to stock podcasts and judge others. Would easily, no doubt in my opinion, throw his Dad under a bus, if it meant a title CFO or CEO. Made my female coworker balling cry on 3 different occasions. Just an utter POS.

They are a national seed this year. They are far from a Cinderella team. And I can’t imagine that this storyline would make someone who otherwise wouldn’t watch this game tune in, but what do I know?

Coastal won a national championship 9 years ago…


And this year was just the 4th time they have made it to a Super Regional.

They aren't a power. But they are a regular tournament 2-seed.

Selling network time. David vs Goliath is always a good sell.

You do realize that most of America doesn't give a fudge about college baseball. The media is doing what they can to boost nterest.

The media is down to their last feel good story to hype to the masses - C.C.
LSU already dispatched Little Rock and now LSU has continued / extended our success against Arkansas - the Tigers prevented DVH from winning his 1st title.
Murray St was knocked out.
CC is the sole remaining David battling Goliath.

The media and ESPN rarely pump the underlings against other sports juggernauts (Bama / OSU / Michigan / ND fb, Duke / NC / Kansas BB etc.), but they will point and laugh and milk the news cycle when David knocks out Goliath (Vandy/Bama)

LSU is to baseball what San Jose State is to judo-52 national championships going back to the early 60s.

I honestly couldn't care less what the media angle is.
Play your best ball, and come home with Number 8.

That's total bullshite and makes no difference to these players and their coach anyway. This series will be won on the field, not in the media.

It’s simple. College baseball fans are as sick of LSU winning as you are of Alabama winning in football.

They are not. I think they were the two seed in Auburn’s Regional.

Come on man, be realistic. You should always expect the umpires to be stupid and screw your team over at every opportunity. Anything else is just living in a fantasy land.
