IMO, College Baseball is the most unpredictable of all the sports.
In recent years we have seen Arky and the Vols be no. 1 all year,
and lose their Super Regional at their home ball park and not go to Omaha!
Such a fine line to get to Omaha and then win it all. How many years has FSU been to Omaha and
never won the title?
Having said all that.....I like our chances!
There are clearly coaches/staffs that know how to push the right buttons to consistently get their teams deep into the tourney/to Omaha. For better or worse, our previous coach was elite at that. Even years where his teams may not have been one of the 8 best in the country, sure enough, you would find them in Omaha.
We will, rightfully, start the season as #1. We will be the most talented team in the country. I love what we've seen from Earley since his hire. But does he have the managerial skills to push the right buttons in May/june? Only time will tell.
