2024 college baseball/softball thread

Oklahoma ... more than OK.

 

In baseball, none of the No. 2 seeds advanced. First time that has happened in this format.

 

In my day you didn’t need five pitchers to get through seven innings

 

Three homers and counting for FSU, plus another blast that may have gone over the foul pole but didn’t have a conclusive replay. UConn starter chased after an inning and 2/3.

 

Just turned this one on. No mercy rule?

 

Not in the tournament

 

I looked 10 minutes ago and it was 15-1 FSU. It's now 24-1. Holy shit!

 

Talk about a frozen rope! Holy cow, that was great.

 

It won’t because there isn’t much NIL in baseball compared to football and hoops.

 

Outside the South and perhaps Southern California, college baseball doesn't have a high profile. If you're marketing a new line of shoes or gloves, do you want Joe Schmoe of Hometown Tech as your endorser or a major league star?

 

Sure, but if Joe is going to play college ball, you want him to go to Tech instead of State. We all know NIL isn't really about the N, the I, or the L - its about the ability.

 

NC State drops 11 on Georgia in the top of the second. Wow.
