Vandy when they went 26-3 in the sec

Well when you have 6 National Championships, 1 runner up, and 18 CWS appearances, anything less than a CWS appearance is a failure. Regular season doesn’t mean anything unless you can win during the summer. Tennessee doesn’t win during the summer, so they aren’t dominant, it’s pretty simple.

Kinda easy to win a lot of games when you potentially get caught using PEDs and got popped using bats that didnt pass inspection.

Remember when Skip moved Big Ben from the mound to left field in case A&M started to rally.


And Ben closed the second game of the double header after starting the first game. The college pitchers were used in the late 80s/90s would not go over well today.

Do you realize how big of a piece of shite you have to be to continue to promote a fake rumor about a college athlete that you know is false just because you don’t like a team?


Does that make me more or less of piece of shite than the players who flip off fans they dont like as they round the bases? Or is it a bigger POS move for a head coach to physically bump an umpire? What about actively getting caught cheating during a midweek game?

Need a more in depth breakdown of the POS scale

Easily the most pathetic argument I’ve ever heard.

“A bunch of kids hurt my feelings in a game I’m not even playing, just watching so I’m going to spread fake rumors to damage the character of a college kid.”

Grow up man.

Lately, you must be getting pretty used to failure, eh?

Assuming they're all over 18 years of age, at what point do we stop calling them kids?

They acted like fricking jackasses all season long and deserved to flame out like they did. frick them "kids."

Then call them on it. Say they acted like jackasses and deserved to lose. Laugh at them.

Don’t continue to spread a rumor that has been 100% proven to be false.

Big difference.

The #1 overall seed hasn’t won a championship since Miami in 1999. Tennessee was cursed to lose from the start of the tournament.

Sucks we didn’t finish it off in the NCAA tournament but up until this weekend it’s one of the better seasons in recent memory. Someone can argue there’s better but we were in the discussion.


2013 Vanderbilt was 26-3 and didn’t make Omaha.

2022 Tennessee finishes tied for second in total SEC conference wins and 4 way tied for most wins overall at 57.

First time since 2007 Vandy the a team that wins both Conference and Tournament doesn’t advance.

So 2022 Tennessee gets the honor of being the 2nd best team ever to not make Omaha. Congrats.
