Other D2 programs in this state would beat us by 10+ runs this year too. Best 9 vs Best 9, don’t think it’s crazy to say Francis Marion is more talented than what we put out on the field this weekend. DEFINITELY better coached 🤷♂️ so maybe that means natty?
There is no “chicken curse”. There is no “we can’t have nice things”. It hasn’t been the same players, coaches, ADs across the last 100 umpthing years of USC sports. Until we stop this woe is me bullshit and decide to make and demand our own success from a B.O.T. / higher up level we’re going to stay around this level. Magic and curse don’t fucking exist, but complacency and mediocrity do. We’ve had a whole lot of it.
Counter point… take 2011 team lost to Francis Marion. We play 50+ games and if we are looking back at NKU as the reason we missed a regional then we didn’t do our job for the remainder of the year.
Both these things can be true, but I’m tired of our fanbase having this mixture of self pity and unchecked anger with absolutely 0 intention of doing anything about it. Either give more to the teams or boycott. Don’t sit in the same spot and wonder why nothing changes
NEW: Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz pushes back on ‘playoff-or-bust’ mentality in college football:
"We gotta get out of this ‘Oh man, it’s playoffs or bust,' If the season only counts for 12 football teams, and we got 127 D1 football teams, that math’s not gonna math very well... There’s a whole heck of a lot to be proud of."

Did anybody every check and see what Faison’s 40 time was? Buddy looks like he’s running in slow motion ever since he got cleared. Guess it’s the old man knees
