Yep.

This one sucks because it's the 4th time in 5 years we've come so close, but at least it's not the most painful. This was a crazy run, and we lost to a significantly better team. This isn't half as painful as WBB, where we were the better team, in the championship, were up big at the half, and lost on a last second 3.

I remember Jim saying that to Pat McMahon in 1998 after we clinched an Omaha spot. Still waiting.

Agreed. Bigtime. I almost think this sentiment underscores our entire athletic program.
I agree, but if you are on the outside trying to break in you have to cone close several times before you crash the party. Our athletic program has never been better.

We weren't the best team at the CWS. That was clear. Being the best ain't easy and we have to manage the recruiting game at an extremely high level four a couple of years to have a real chance AND have a little luck.

They were the better team. But son of a ***** it’d be nice if the ball would bounce our way even when it should’nt

Yep, we've been the best...1985...didn't get it done due to bad luck. I want us to get back to being the best team in Omaha like we were that one time.

I'm not bothered by this one at all. Women's basketball, on the other hand... ****. I still don't like to think about it.

I’m mad we don’t have a national championship in baseball but not mad at this team or how this season ended. I do think it’s inexcusable that we don’t have a natty in baseball but this team isn’t to blame. This team should never hang their heads in shame, and I am forever grateful for them. They should get some statues or something.

I’m okay with this one. We were beaten by the better team.

I guess I feel the same way. I hate we lost but I’m ok with it. I feel like the best 2 teams in the country actually made the national championship.

Most important, I feel like the team we have coming back has a legit national title shot.

I told my brother last night after the game that I was very disappointed, but yet very Happy. This was a strange year to say the least.
