Ok, I’ll bite and play devil’s advocate just for conversation sake. Do you think LSU expects to make Omaha every season? If you’re a blue blood program like was stated then why wouldn’t you expect to make the CWS every year. Does Alabama expect to make the football playoffs every season?

If you’re a blue blood program like was stated then why wouldn’t you expect to make the CWS every year. Does Alabama expect to make the football playoffs every season? If they do they are stupid. I wrote up a big thing awhile ago but the longest streak since the 50's is either 4 or 5 in a row. Perennial powerhouses will go 2-3 times a decade if they are lucky. I could see this changing with NIL but expecting CWS more than once a decade is pretty delusional. Rational goals are essentially making the post season and hosting a regional. Making the post season is an important step for every program and should be the yearly goal. On good years you host and you have a shot to make it. On really good years you are a national seed and your chances are even better. We are on a 7 year post season streak. The regional we one this year was our 9th ever. We have made the CWS 7 times counting 1952. Anything past making the post season is not only hard but takes some luck. Literally our most successful baseball team ever didn't win their regional. Until this loss Mitch was slightly ahead in career win percentage of PC (although obviously PC built it from scratch more or less). H has 37, 48, 41, 45 (so far) win seasons. Things are pretty good. Plus we haven't even lost yet, bats could wake up and we drop a 20 burger to force game 3. |

Canham is a very good head coach. However development of arms isn’t really good. In my opinion.

How about Arkansas? Vanderbilt? Texas? TCU? Stangford? How about Louisville, Fullerton, UCLA or Arizona? Clemson is a top tier program and hasn't been there since 2010. They are all programs that "expect" to be in Omaha, but not every program makes the elite 8, especially in baseball. |

It doesn't feel like it but in 2024 we have the 5th best ERA of post season teams and 12th best WHIP of post season teams. We are actually an elite pitching club. |

Getting rid of Mitch as we head into being an independent team would be the absolute worst thing we could do. It would kill the program. Can we get rid of ironbeaver and rafer? That would help the program! Maybe they'll enter the portal since no one takes them seriously and they can get more playing time somewhere else. |

Did I miss us not making the mcws this year? They get 2 wins for winning 10-0? Whole lot of pain coming their way tomorrow evening and a sleepless night.

Not the SEC not the ACC not in high Altitude. Let’s be realistic with National averages. |

I blame 2017 and 2018. Those teams were good enough to win it all if they could avoid horrible luck. Now, the other teams get compared to that. We have a good team this year. There are some obvious flaws, but they are competitive and with the right breaks they could be in the final series. There's another game today. Will Kmatz be sharp? Will the hitters see the ball well and barrel up some balls? Will we be clean defensively and not give away outs on the basepathes?

10-0.....1-0...still just counts for one game. Part of me has a lot easier time handling this throw away loss game than I would be had we lost 3-4 on a walk off in a game we thought we had. But alas, we get another shot at it today. I think we can at least push this to 3 games. Tomorrow I'm not as confident, but let's at least make them play the game.
