    agreed. the only reason i said what i said because i felt nc state could have easily won the series in south bend and i didnt think NCSU was playing well then. but turns out nc state is pretty damn good. also, im sure youre aware, the ncsu/ND baseball connection is pretty cool.

    :laugh: you made some dumb statements and now you want to walk it back. We had a great season with a disappointing finish, it’s happened to literally every #1 seed the past 20+ years. That’s baseball. NC State is much better than LSU, USF, Ole Miss, Texas Tech and probably even a couple others in the Supers. Don’t try to diminish what they accomplished against us and not expect to get called on it.

    Hope you had a good vacation.

    I didnt disagree (and won’t be shocked if Mississippi state comes out and dominates tomorrow). That ncsu series was one we should have not pulled out and one for it that just felt like “ok, maybe we got something going”. One of the many fun series this season (so far)

    I literally have no idea what’s going on but great hostility

    this board needs more sports and infinitely less political hostility

    it's what makes baseball awesome. arkansas beats NC State 8/10 times if this weekend is played over. 100% pulling for ND, but also super envious of what Miss State has going for them facility and fan wise

    I’m so jealous of what #Mississippi State Bulldogs has going at their baseball Games. We’re lucky to get 500 at most games. I’ve spent many Saturdays at a freezing ass lax game and then a freezing ass baseball game so it’s so freaking awesome to see excitement at college baseball games. It’s such a foreign concept to us up here

    Okay. Sorry I insulted NC State. I’ll give you LSU and USF. Still, there’s a reason they were a #2. The point is, they had no business beating the best team in the country. That shouldn’t be controversial.

    Enjoyed it, thanks. I got to watch some great baseball and see a friend I haven’t seen some pre-COVID. Got an unexpected win, to boot.

    Fortunately, I left Tucson today. Unfortunately, my flight got canceled so I’m watching this shitty ass game in the terrible hotel American Airlines put me in. The irony is that the reason I flew AA was because I had miles that were about to expire that they gave me the last time they canceled my flight.

    same even in raleigh. no joke, the ncsu facilities are likely worst in the ACC with many local mid majors lapping them. despite those disadvantages, there has been a competitive field out there 90% of the time. hopefully that'll change for the ACC

    Rumors going around that we’re starting Sims. Not sure if I like the move. I think we need to start Harding and have sims first relief.
