    My grandson is a Marine stationed at Camp LeJeune. Recently he and some friends traveled to see a game at East Carolina. It was a 7 inning run rule no-hitter. He was impressed.

    College baseball is a lot of fun for those uninitiated.
    Most schools have their own quirky little traditions they carry on such as fans shooting gobs of bubbles when an Aggie hits a home run...
    Give it a try if you get a chance.

    My wife, Judy, and I loved watching the College World Series together. She was a baseball fan. IMO, college baseball is the sport in its purest form.

    Agree even a team like Notre Dame which is at the bottom of the ACC and barely .500 overall, took 2 out of 3 from Wake Forrest one of the better ACC teams.

    Scott what's the word on Schlossnagle calling out a Georgia pitcher for doctoring the ball?

    I didn't hear what Coach said, but have a look for yourself at the UGA pitcher during his "amazing" run of strike outs - K-ing 6 of the best hitters on the team to end the game.
    Nothing on the back of that glove I'm sure...

    $*(#&(*&$&!!!!
    Well you can't play flawless baseball for a whole season, and the Aggies have decided to completely put all their nonsense into one series in Baton Rouge.
    Plagued by errors, wild pitches, bad baserunning decisions, and anything else you can think of the Ags have now dropped the first two games to the one team in all of baseball I wanted to beat most.

    On the plus side, I got a very difficult maintenance repair done on my F250 this morning... so I got that going for me. :D

    What has happened to the Miami Hurricanes baseball program? That used to be a great program with a lot of talent and a lot of wins. Now they are struggling and not as good as the Irish in the ACC.

    FSU went through some tough years but with their new coach who struggled last year they are making their way back to the top it seems. But not Miami.
