Well, it was a good run Rebs

Postby Po Monkey Lounger » Sun Jun 22, 2014 10:03 am

The Rebs faced and defeated more national seeds on their journey than any other team. The Rebs will finish the season ranked no lower than 3rd.

VA was just better. We faced them twice and scored only 2 runs in 18 innings. I think they have the best pitching staff and best team in the country. I predict that they will be the national champs.

The Rebs are close. We just need to get a little better.

It feels good to finally have a team ranked in the top 5, to go along with our top 5 fanbase.

Hotly Toddy. Great season.

Well said Po Monk. Today, we have the best baseball program in the state and one of the best in the country.

It was a good run and I think it is also evidence of a few things:
(1) Baseball is all about momentum and pitching at year's end; and
(2) The NCAA, in its wisdom, has completely taken away a major component of baseball in Omaha...the homerun...pitchers are no longer punished for poor pitches...in fact, they are rewarded with fly outs. They need to move the fences in 10-15 feet in that stadium due to the prevailing tornado-like winds blowing in almost all the time.

Ole Miss had the power, on a normal field, to beat anyone in Omaha, but that advantage was taken away through no fault of their own.

officially unofficial but godwin is gone to ECU. happy for the man. that's what he wanted to do was be a HC and to go back home and then to do it for his old school that's pretty cool.

proud of the rebs, and i already find myself looking forward to another baseball season!

As we sit here today, they are the best program in the State...that is not debatable. Could that change next year? Sure. In 2014 they were the best - probably by a wide margin.

If State had handled their business at UL, we would've found out who was the best team in the state. Ole Miss will lose 9 players plus HS kids to the draft. They'll be an entirely diff team next season.
