Hopefully, this is the start of another journey to the National Championship for an AAC team.

Ohh.. What a year!!!

I watched a few minutes, good digital feed. Thanks for posting.

Too bad it looks like there are far more people in the dugouts than in the stands. Actually, the attendance might literally be zero - as the camera pans I haven't actually yet seen anyone at all in the stands.

Why bother to hold these events if nobody comes?

NO THANKS!

I saw one guy in the stands

It is depressing, isn't it?

Honestly, not really, bearcatfan. I just can't get into college baseball, whether UC is any good or not. Reds baseball is in full effect and that is the only baseball team I have any interest in following.

I am fortunate to have Houston and UCF to follow. Both DAMN good teams.

As an undergrad and SigEp at UH, Coog baseball was always a good time.

I love Omaha. The pageantry of College baseball is distinct and fun.

For those who don't follow your own team, you're free to root for mine.

People are probably working. It's in Clearwater. You really have to lead a care-free life (as a fan of any conference) to be able to chuck it and head to Clearwater on a Wednesday afternoon. Fortunately, the conference is providing great coverage.

I can agree that the environment there is cool, but that is about it.

I have an uncle who won the championship while at Ohio State in the 60's.

College baseball always provides great drama in their tournement. For obvious reasons, it's much more popular in the warmer climates in the West and in the South. Hopefully, UC improves their program. We have a very good baseball conference and it's no fun to be in the basement.

That's tough this year so far as well, damn Cardinals.

Next year they should play at disney.
