[QUOTE="The Bell Tolls for Thee, post: 132419754, member: 1812660"] Easy there. My point is 2 things can be true at once. One WVU had a pretty good season and one much better than expected. Two WVU was in a spot with only a very reasonable task to make it a historically great season and failed in spectacular fashion. Both statements are true. And if WVU won one game in that Texas series the season would've been historically phenomenal regardless of any post season results. Instead WVU tied for the regular season championship, but was ultimately found to be the 3rd best of those it tied with by OBJECTIVE measures. Being 3rd best in conference is not new for WVU baseball as far as I recall. But being 3rd best team tied for first aka first in name only, is the only thing making this season historic without a Big 12 tournament win or a trip to Omaha. Winning 1 game at Texas is a small ask to secure a Big 12 regular season championship, host a regional in the Big Tournament, and not enter the post season on a demoralizing slump. Yet with all that on the line, WVU got blown out 3 games in a row. That is why some of us fans were justifiably upset by a completely blown opportunity. Now please stop being condescending. [/QUOTE]
