You didn't even make the Supers.   I'm sitting in Omaha and just watched a team full of freshman play in the College World Series.  I'm ready for next year already.  

 

Omaha is great btw.  If you love baseball, there is no better play to visit.  My only regret is that I didn't bring the kids.  I probably would have saved a lot of money in the casinos had they been here.  

You won the high school regional and beat a team with 3 scholarship players in the Supers.

The ags were the worst team in Omaha and you can spin that however you like.

Man been away for awhile good to see nothing has changed:

Texas fans - Man we were really really good "back when"

A&M was not supposed to get out of their regional as the 3 ranked team and if I remember right was one of the last 4 teams to be invited to the post season at all.  I think even Texas fans can see how this A&M team performed much better than expected by even making it to the CWS.

We can only play the teams in front of us. We knew we were the worst team in Omaha going in to it.  Most expected 2 & Q with this team, although it did sting a little more losing to TCU again. 

 

The team is very young and gained a lot of experience this season. For game 1 our 2,3 & 4 hitters were all true freshman.  We should be a lot better next year, and hopefully I will get to make the trip back to Omaha.

You are right they were - but they were there?  Not like many other teams that (1) failed to make post-season (2) lost in the Regionals (3) lost in the super's - Good year for an Aggie team that did much more than expected.

Gotta give credit when credit is due.

You haven't hosted a Regional since 2011.  At least you have the glory days that you can watch on repeat on the LHN I guess.

The worst team in Omaha...I would say that's still a compliment, right?

OT!  Good to see you around!

And I agree.  It IS good to see some things never change.  Throw out a couple of barbs and it's puppet master time!

Don't be a stranger though!  Always enjoy your well-reasoned posts, including the one above!

Good to be back even if only for a little while and on and off.

But tell me if I am wrong - did you just cross baseball (2011 last football NC pfor Texas) and 1939 ( last football NC for A&M) - at least keep the discussion in the same sport!

That home plate ump was brutal.  He was pretty consistent though.  LSU pitchers just located well and kept hitting that spot 6" off the plate.  

 

I went to the first LSU-Oregon St game.  It was a massacre and I left there thinking OSU was the best college team I've seen in a long time.  Great job by LSU to battle back when most people didn't think they could win 2 from OSU.

How does this work? Do we bandwagon TCU now? So confusing.

Too late.   All SEC Final

SEC Regular Season Champ vs SEC Tournament Champs for the CWS title.  

 

Florida took 2 of 3 during the regular season.  Should be a good series.
