Post season baseball will create many fantasies. I have been thinking for a while about if the team that knocked us out of playoffs meets the team that knocked out LSU, in the national championship finals. Who do you root for? Dam it could have been us.

I debated this in my head, I wanted Arizona to win because we lost to Arizona, but if you think about it how often does a mid-major that is joining the Sunbelt ever make it to the National Championship game? It has never been done in Sunbelt history. Got to Geaux for Coastal! Bring home the Nationa Title!

---I guess I have seen Zona play so much on TV and in person that I have developed a kind of respect/love for them----to think of our handling them the first time we played and coulda/shoulda in the last 2 games gives us natural bragging rights ----and, as has been pointed out, CC is a part of us now----I choose to pull for both and add the talking points for both---but what about TCU??? lol

I'm ok with Zona winning... and I can see why we root for CC. We can identify with how it must be to be CC right now. I want that back for us.

It's crazy how much coastal Carolina and our programs mirror each other... Their coach has been their for 20 years... Turned down other offers because he loves it there... Great community etc...their team is almost a replica of the 2014 team... Lead the country in home runs but will lay down the squeeze. They play fearless and relentless... They never stop coming after you no matter the score. That's the edge we lost with Deggs that I hope we find in the offseason. Talbot is probably a better technical coach than deggs and they teach the same system..it's the mindset. That said I'd like to see Arizona and coastal in the finals and coastal win it all...will give our league that much more respect when they join.

----Just wondering who it was that stated that the first time they saw ZONA that they looked like big time bodies in Unies---whoever it was was on the money---I just wonder who Our body guys are---Sensley for sure but any other Zona types???

I agree. CC does remind me of our 2014 team. This has to help their program. But I'm pretty sure they'll see a good drop next season. I hope our offense catches up with our pitching next year. We weren't that far off this year. One bad pitching inning in each of those Zona games may have cost us a CWS appearance. The CWS has proven that pitching is dominant this year, by a long shot. Our sticks were starting to work for us. Too many pitchers have done really well this post season. Lots of movement and great set up pitches are right off the plate. Very few fat pitches are being tossed. Zona and CC are really using their pitching staffs very very well.

The ball park has to help the pitchers confidence. They can attack those corners and even if they do leave one out over the plate it's still more than likely not getting out of the park. If I know that, I know I don't have to be perfect, just go out and attack.

That's true too.

4-0 Arizona I think Arizona will be heading to the National Championship series.

Not me. My rule of fandom is that those who beat us have to be the best team out there. So go zona!
