BB G3 Final: Louisiana 9, ULM 2

[Million$Mullet]

I’ve seen that we are ranked in 3 different polls now.

[Swamp]

Win the Belt.

[NWLA Cajun]

If my calculations are correct, we have outscored opponents 126-46 during this streak. That's ridiculous.

[wcd35]

Hardball's longest win streaks are 17 games, in 2000 (CWS) and 2014 (finished regular season ranked #1 in one of the polls, hosted Super Regional).

Addendum: and in 2014, we were the #6 national seed.

2014's longest win streak was just 14. They also had two 10-game streaks.

1994 and 2000 had 17 game streaks, which are the longest that I could find

17-game streaks were 1994(or 95?) and 2000 I think.

Yep, I just edited after checking. 94 and 2000

My bad. All this edumacation, you'd think I could recognize the difference between 1994 and 2014.

But they are really close...

[CajunAmos]

I heard Jay mention in yesterday's post game that the 94' streak included a number of D2/D3 type teams.

Yes, there were games against Southern Arkansas, Ouachita Baptist, and William Carey ... six in total during that 17-game winning streak. The schedule (outside of the winning streak) also had games against Loyola (New Orleans) and Delta State. This was the season that Lamar swept us in Beaumont and eliminated the Cajuns in the Sun Belt Tournament (two and cue). The Cajuns went 2-5 vs. Lamar that season.

I recall the Saturday doubleheader at Lamar where the Cajuns lost 4-0 and 11-0. It was not my fault ... but it was my wedding day.

We have quickly dismantled teams for what seems like weeks.

Well, at least somebody got lucjy that day!

[GoneGolfin]

Well, at least somebody got lucky that day!

I certainly did. It was the next day when we were driving to Florida and the NCAA Basketball Tournament selections were being announced on the radio. It was then that I learned that the Cajuns would be taking on Marquette in the first round at the St. Petersburg Thunderdome. We attended the game with 8th row center court tickets ($20 each).

Oh wait, you were talking about ...

I too was at that game.

[Million$Mullet]

I too was at that game.

Me too! That regional was loaded. Duke, Kentucky,Marquette and Michigan state. I distinctly remember how much blue was in that arena. The thunderdome was new at the time and they ended up having to add more seats for the Kentucky/Marquette duke/Michigan state session.
