    Well Gators win, Aggies lose. Gators face Louisville next. Astros draft pick Corbin Martin was blasted early, Ag's face former B12 rival TCU in the losers bracket.

    Slight correction:
    The Aggies face current Texas B12 Rival TCU... we were gone before they came along.

    I'm guessing you meant to say "SWC rival".


    And it appears we're sucking as bad as I expected. It was nice for the boys to get to Omaha, but we didn't really belong. Not after all we lost from last year.

    I was kinda surprised that A&M didn't make any offensive adjustments. Hell, the announcers were calling for it during the game. Either way, good season for the Aggies.

    Oregon State's, without their top pitcher, is 2-0 and just threw a 13-1 smack down on LSU last night. That's a really good team.

    I've been mostly quiet on this subject because I absolutely hate the new super regional format they use. It's hard for me to get through the regionals without getting pissed at the matchups.

    Scott I'm feeling your pain but have to say that they did enough to make it to the World Series, enough said....

    The final is set and improbably it's an SEC champ game.
    I'm not surprised at the Gators making it, but figured LSU was done after losing to OSU.
    Gotta pull for the Gators.
    And... The Aggies did take 2 of 3 from the Kitties at the Box this year.

    Congrats to the Gators. LSU has the old Notre Dame coach so I'm going with them.

    LSU pitching certainly manhandled the Beavers. This should be a good final series for both teams.

    Same here. We went to a ND game when he was coaching there. My three oldest grandsons got his and Jeff Samardzija's autographs on the undersides of the bills of their caps. Both Mainieri and the Shark were very nice to them. You don't forget an encounter like that. I've been a fan of both ever since.

    Geaux Tigers! :D

    Interesting match-up considering the bit of bad blood between the two schools kicked up by Hurricane Matthew last football season.

    Go Gators!

    I'm over here doing whatever anti-hex you can against a Cajun as they have humbled this Cane fan on multiple occasions. Since I'm not your everyday Gator fan maybe the team from Hogtown can get it done...

    Go Gators
