31 points in the 2nd half. Find a larger deficit

The biggest comeback in NCAA Division I men's basketball history occurred on February 22, 2018, when Drexel University overcame a 34-point deficit to defeat Delaware 85-83. Trailing 53-19 with 2:30 left in the first half, Drexel staged a historic second-half rally to surpass the previous record of 32 points

---

Previous Record: Duke trailed by 32 points against Tulane on December 30, 1950, but came back to win 74-72.

so the Kentucky one was literally NEVER a record.

Not college baseball, where only a handful of west coast schools and ONE major school (LSU) are actually trying to win at.

---

I'm constantly humored by how hard people try to belittle baseball and how many schools are not just trying, but have actual legitimate shots at winning one.

a WHOLE lot more that one major program are trying to win it.

just in the SEC:

LSU
Ole Miss
Miss State
Vandy
Tennessee
Florida

have all won it recently.

which is more schools than Football and Basketball combined in this league.

A&M
Texas
Arkansas
Oklahoma

are you really going to try to say these teams aren't desperately TRYING to win it?

hell, I've already listed more teams with legitimate title shots in just one conference than there is in the entire country in football.

the ACC is also a very deep baseball conference.
North Carolina, Miami, Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Louisville are all damn good programs that pump resources into their baseball teams and can make runs.

the BIG XII has a few schools that take baseball seriously too.
TCU, Arizona, Texas Tech, etc.

thing big west coast schools UCLA, Oregon, Oregon State

then there's teams that are down right now, but have some pretty good fairly recent history too, like South Carolina and Stanford.

and that's still leaving out all the "small" schools that are in the mix all the damn time.

someone handicapped could make it at 1st base if they can consistently hit .300

you say that like hitting .300 is "easy"

fewer people hit .300 in MLB than there are QBs in the NFL that have a 100+ QB rating every year.

I'm not disagreeing with you on your point. But would imagine the majority of all kids learn to ice skate on ice rinks not outside. Even up north

---

as a kid, you can go out in your own yard and play basketball.
all you need is an empty field to play baseball or football.

plus in the Deep South most of the winter the weather is nice enough to go play around outside. you don't have to go find an indoor sport (rink).

Don't you think ESPN would air this if there was an audience for it worth broadcasting??

---

FoxSports aired the UCLA/TCU game last night.
MLB network regularly airs the Minute Maid tourney.

must be some sort of Audience for them to air it.

quote:

---

However it was not ruled a double play. Why? Was it because the first base umpire called Brown safe at first and tagging up was unnecessary?

---

everything after the umpires on field call is based on that call.

in real time, players can only react to that call, not the replay results, so that is how the play is handled.

One time I fed my snake some beer. It slithered this way and that

it was all fricked up!

put one at the base of each pole looking straight up.
sorta like the pylon cams looking down the goal line.
