Can’t believe that trash MSU squad is in the winners bracket. Arky smoked Texas and may just be the favorites at this point. UNC upset Oregon St and TTU/UF is tied at the moment. Can’t really decide if I want UF to go 0-2 or win the damn thing.

As I was typing this they showed the fuggin Canseco and now I’m sure I want UF to lose in heartbreaking fashion..

Everything fell into place for MSU so far, ever since they walked off FSU (#1 seed in their regional) and knocked them out. Kudos to them for taking full advantage of it. I was most surprised to see OSU go down in the first round to UNC. But TT is legit.

I have Arky winning it all. Who you think?

They aren’t a great hitting team. But their defense has been what’s let them down the most the last few weeks. They just aren’t making the routine plays consistently right now. When it was tied 1-1, Schwarz had a chance to end an inning on a moderately tough play and didn’t even get a glove on the ball to knock it down and keep two runs from scoring.

I think they’re a very good team, especially at home. But I don’t think they have enough consistency at the plate and aren’t playing well enough in the field to win the CWS this year.
 
Can’t blame the kid for not wanting to play on a team chocked full of travel ball sissies

Are you saying the kids on the MSU team didn't play travel ball?

You would hope your coach could sell his vision to kid and overcome the current state of the program in the first couple of years of his tenure

No. I’m saying that they didn’t have a travel ball sissy mindset
 
I watched the first State game. I saw Stovall have a great game. He should have been at Auburn.

Yup, his dad told me the kid's dream was to play for AU but he just liked Butch too much. Oh the irony.

Of course his dad does have a slight tendency to exaggerate...

Which travel ball teams teach travel ball sissy mindset?

I've always found it interesting how only Sonny ever had this issue, even though just about every kid who signs D1 now plays travel ball

You can blame it on Paw for the most part for not getting the kids out of their travel ball mindset once they got on campus. Took Sonny two years and a bunch of kids crying to finally instill a little mental toughness in our program and Butch will start to see it pay off bigly once he learns to manage games a little better

Lol. So what about the 1st signing class he signed where he ran everyone off? How does one blame Paw for that?
 
For those who didn't see it, here is what could have the final out of the game (OSU was down to last strike). Instead, batter ties it up a couple of pitches later (runner was on 3rd) and the guy that followed hit a 2-run HR.
