SB: G2 Final: Louisiana 15, South Alabama 3

With a wink and a nod you gotta admit, lots of teams have won Softball National Championships.

The two toughest feats ever in softball are getting to a 71 game winning streak, and breaking a 71 game winning streak.

Only one team in each catagory has ever done it.

Geaux Lady Cajuns.

That was sooooooo WILD! Seventh and 8th innings! WoW, what a "come back"!

Glad you mentioned that. Reminded me that we were in a Super regional last year.

Also reminded me that last year was the 14th or 15th consecutive NCAA tournament in which the Cajuns have advanced at least to the Championship game in a regional..

I would argue that that is a bigger accomplishment than either thing being discussed here.

Oklahoma won 71 games with about 75% of the same team. The Cajun‘s are winning the conference weekends with three different teams.

I hadn't thought of the turnover aspect.

Great observation.

Says a lot about timing and recruiting. No matter where a 71 game run happens, it encompasses a NC. Weekend sweeps are important, but a long streak is yet to bring the ultimate success. It’s nice having the series streak, made good media, to a point.

82nd conference softball series victory in a row. A record that won't be touched ever since it's 11 years in a row and still ongoing.

No accolades associated with it, which means no reason to get up for it except internally.

That alone makes it impressive.

71 straight has the advantage/burden of getting up for every game fully aware they are coming for you, but as a core team you appreciate and are aware of the situation.

82 straight series represents a massive flux of players who cannot be aware in the same way as a unit.

Both very impressive.
