2000 was the year we lost to Louisiana-Lafayette at home in a Super-regional? We who had been ranked #1 and owned the nation's longest win streak? An ignominious disgrace.

Horrible day. ULL fans all had on old faded red tee shirts and big mouths. Good team though.

THE worst. A complete failure to validate.
I know of worse. Try being 3-0 in the World Series, only needing to beat your arch rival one out of two, only to get beaten both games. And if that’s not bad enough, only to see your arch rival win it all.

Only OUR failures register with me. Only THOSE hurt. Hurt is more impactful than pleasure. We won the CWS, eh? Well, isn't that what we were there for?

I hear you. Success soothes some of the pain of failure

Couldn’t happen to a better bunch of fans. It’s built over a slagtite & stalagmite formation. Add water & it sinks into the Earth It happened when their natatorium sprung a leak a coupla decades ago. The whole thing should be sucked into the Earth. The n case you missed it, I despise that place.

And people still think it is easy to get to Omaha. You can have the best hitting, best pitching, best defense, and somedays, it is just not your day.
As RT was stepping down as HC, he stated on many an occasion how hard it was to get to Omaha.
