The point still remains. Unc was a major favorite in every single game. And yet are staring down elimination AGAIN in a super regional to a non ranked team
It is baseball. There is a reason it is really hard to make it to Omaha.

Baseball is really unpredictable. There’s a reason why there was 2 three seeds and a 4 seed in the super regionals. USC has a better ERA than we do and have been really hot offensively. We were not a major favorite by any means

We feasted on a lot of bad pitching. USC has really good pitching. Our offense has been really reliant on walks and making pitchers work. Guys who can command and pound the zone can get quick outs.
Our approach by some of our batters is that they’ve hit 20 HRs this year. Maybe go backside on some of the shifts if you’re hitting under .300, or just hit line drives. Our approach is trying to hit a 7-run home run.

Problem with this lineup is there’s so little pop. Having to rely on stringing hits together is such a tall order on a day like today.
That's been a problem for Carolina almost every year for the last 12-15 years. We lack the same things every year - left-handed pitching depth, power hitting, a quality #3 starter. Really frustrating to have the same problems year after year. Contrast this game to the slugfest in Athens, GA right now. I'm glad DeCaro, Lynch, and Glauber are Grade A college pitchers, but we've had Grade A college pitchers since The Miller-Bard-Woodard team and it always flames out in the postseason.

Another three up, three down for the USC offense. Johnson is executing well, Tar Heels are going to have to breakthrough if they want to win and continue their season
