View Full Version : This begs the question...
why no national title?
South Carolina is one of only two schools in the nation to reach the NCAA Super Regionals in seven of the last eight years (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007). Since the 2000 season, the Gamecocks are the only SEC squad to reach the NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament each year and have compiled eight consecutive 40-plus win seasons. The Gamecocks have also put together a 388-155 record in that span, the fourth highest win total in Division I baseball as well as an SEC-best 147-92 in conference match-ups. That list also includes three trips to the College World Series (2002, 2003, 2004), two SEC Championships (2000, 2002) and one SEC Tournament title (2004).
It seems like we would have gotten lucky and fallen into a title, don't ya think?

Of all the University of South Carolina sports, baseball is the one where its going to happen before any other sport. It's coming soon! GO COCKS!
Yea I think it's coming for sure, but those are some impressive numbers since 2000. The thing is, LSU was similar in those numbers from 1990-2000, and they won 6 national titles. I guess they had a better foundation going into that decade, but still. I want my title now.

Carolina has had fantastic Baseball Teams for a long time going all the way back to when Bobby Richardson coached
We need a dynamite pitching staff to go along with our bats. Then we'll win the NC.

Had the current championship formula been in place with 2 games, we would have probably beaten Texas with Marchbanks and Campbell, we started Aaron Rawl, who pitched a hell of a game, but was just a freshmen.

Here is an answer. Pitching. Looks worse this year than beofre. Bats don't win ball games. Pitching does.

Bats win games. Pitching, wins championships.

Sounds to me like they have the same disease as the Atlanta Braves did in the 1990's.....5 trips to the WS and only 1 championship. I believe they'll get one soon, but it'll take some patience and some luck to go along with it.

Campbell was just a freshman too, wasn't he? Who were the other starting pitchers on that team?
