There are star Freshmen all over this league. State may be better under BOC than ever and will still struggle to get to Omaha and/or win it. LSU is loading up from the portal. Vandy has made some great pick ups. Texas, Florida, Arkansas, A&M, Auburn, Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee are going hard at it already. What Georgia did in the conference this year is truly remarkable and they still couldn’t beat the 11 best SEC team in Omaha. The best ever SEC record in the 30 game season was 25-5. UGA was 23-7 this year. How many consecutive years has an SEC team won the NC? Heck, how many consecutive years has an SEC team been in the finals? When was the last time no team from the previous year’s CWS made it the next year? That means there were 16 different teams in Omaha the past 2 years and NONE were named Mississippi State!
Imagine how hard it was for 1 team to make it 3 straight seasons. 2018, 2019 (no tourney in 2020) 2021. That was State! Remarkable run in an event that is hard to make!
