RT @MikeHumesESPN: Final ESPN/USA Today baseball poll top 10: Arizona, USC, Arky, Fla St, UCLA, Fla, Kent St, Stony Brook, Baylor, Oregon

Who would have thought we would be ending the season at #2! How awesome.

hahaha at Arizona begining a dynasty...come on now

ktguen · 06-26-2012, 03:30 PM

The term "beginning a dynatsy" confuses me. I was always under the impression 3 Championships in a row or at least 3 in a decade made you a dynasty. That's why I didn't even refer to us as one.

I am a believer in 3 out of 5 rule

+1

3/5, 4/7, 5/9.. any of those really

Well, that was national title number 4 for them, so I'd say they're a pretty strong program historically.

They'll have to go through us again to get a 2 peat.

Mick Chicken · 06-26-2012, 03:45 PM

Still think fl st is/was overrated all year long. Yes I understand they were in the final 4

ElectricCock · 06-26-2012, 03:54 PM

Florida should be at least #3 or #2, and one could argue #1... I mean they are SOOO so SOOO so so talented

I do. Baseball is a different animal than other sports. To do what we've done since Ray Tanner has been our coach, in baseball terms, is a dynasty. We are the best baseball program in the nation. All the NCAA's, all the Supers, all the times we should have gone to Omaha and we let it slip away (at East Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia Tech) then we win back to back titles and finish runner-up going for a third? I consider that a dynasty, in baseball terms.

Wait, where's Clemson? They have to be up there don't they? They had Omaha stitched in their hats afterall

ktguen · 06-26-2012, 04:30 PM

Weird to not see LSU or Kentucky up there either. Not saying they should have been, just weird after the regular season. This is why I will ALWAYS be a fan of a playoff system.

#1, #1, and #2 in the final polls the past three years. Can't ask for too much more than that!

crowcutta · 06-26-2012, 04:42 PM

one of the greatest runs ever, id try to stamp it by itself if we had one. good news is we get a chance to add to it next year.
im agreed on the 3, i compare it to the miami and southern cal 30+ game winning streaks in cfb during the past decade though ours would have a decided edge considering the postseason and cws winning streaks.

That's the only other thing we could have asked for.

Hence why I said can't ask for too much more than that.

White text. Well played.
