We're not on the same level as them, and never will be. The sooner we accept that, the better off we will be as fans.
We are no different than Auburn to Bama, Wash st to Washington, Oregon st to Oregon. The "Main" state schools historically have and will continue to have advantages.
Our biggest problem right now is when we are on the national stage, we just prove everyone right. All we needed to do was beat texas in football and then win the SEC. Win the CWS when it was right in front of us. Make it to the Sweet 16 when we had a big lead and favored. Imagine how different things would have been if we beat texas then Ga regardless of what happened in the CFP. Imagine if we also beat Tenn in game 3. Imagine if we are in the Sweet 16 being the 8th SEC team in.
We had it all in front of us. We would be looked at as the bigger Texas school with the better program which translates into recruiting.
It is up to us to break down the door but we continue to break our foot doing it.
