nebraska refuse to pay the coach or alma mater too much to pass up??

When mama comes calling.

Van Horn is a great coach. He deserves a CWS Title at some point.

The tourney is Arkansas' to lose now.

They'll have their top man ready to go on Monday.

Miss St will throw their ace on Sat, which means he
won't get adequate rest for the series. The earliest
for him would be a third game, if needed, on Wed.

I don't know who Oreg State will throw tomm. I doubt
they throw their ace. He's already been on the mound twice and stunk both times.

I don't believe Oreg St will hit the MSU ace like they have all these
other stiffs they've faced. If they do get to him early and drive him
from the mound, they'll get to Monday. If not, it'll be
Arky-MSU for the title and Arky will win it

beavers are averaging 10.8 RPG, have an on base % around .450 and are hitting the ball 1 thru the 9 hitters really well…

not sure any ace on any team will stop them…as for the beavers pitching, who knows and who cares after watching their last 2 games of offensive explosions.

starting monday, whoever ends up in the CWS final, both teams will be 0-0 and looking to win 2 games. May the hottest team win.

Good pitching will slow down good hitting. Always has and always
will. Now, I'm talking about "pitching and pitchers" not just
hard throwers. There's a big difference.

If it is ace vs ace, then the better hitters will win out. The ACES
will offset each other.

But if n ace is going against a 2nd line guy..The ace will limit the
good hitters, and the 2nd line guy on the other team, will make
the lesser hitters, better hitters.

That's what makes College Baseball such a great sport. The team is different
each and every game.
