Hate to break the news to you guys , the best team in the country rarely wins the CWS. When you're in position to win you must capitalize! Beating Stanford one time in two games when they had to play a xtra game was not to much to get done. We played poorly and didn't get it done. There were no doubt questionable coaching decisions.

One thing I saw one night around 1am, sitting on a hill over right field at TCU, was an opposing team sending a player to the plate on a mis handled ball at 3rd. My grandmother could have thrown the player out with a wiffle ball if the throw was decent. I think most know what happened. So yes sending Hass home and forcing a executed play at the plate at that point of the game should have happened. Wasn't like were banging the ball around getting key hits. Also bunting Kaufer would have been the right move. These moves may not have been the game makers but I believe were mistakes that could have turned the tide had either one worked out.

The thing is our Vets didn't deliver. Pop ups, K's not getting any key hits or hits in a row etc... defense so so..... Yes our pitching was not stellar to say the least. Baseball post season is a chance to atone for a lack luster regular season if you possess the talent to show what you really have. Being the best team all year or having more studs does not mean near as much in a regional or short series like a super. Often times inferior teams find themselves in the enviable position of needing to just get one win to advance do to fortunate circumstances.

At some point we are going to have to nut up and become the Hot team that Does. Believe me our 89 team was the best team in the nation and all it took was one good Day from a talented LSU team to derail us. Tu, a team we beat 4 out of 5 times that year took out the Tigers in Omaha later that tourney.

P.S.- Our 93, 99,2015,2016 teams were pretty damn good too
