    Thought about that myself....ULL has superior stats in almost every category and played a legit schedule, but Baylor played in a conference with Okla, Ok St, Texas so the stage i nothing new.
    I probably prefer Baylor but not sure I'm right

    Ocala is the greatest. He deserves a new title. How about The Professor?

    How about "The Savant" which by definition is a learned and talented person with exceptional aptitude in a particular field, which fits our boy Ocala to a tee.

    Virginia beat Miami (OH) 7-0 in the Knoxville Regional. Miami led the nation in home runs and a lot of people thought they might be able to win that regional. Not so fast, my friend. Virginia's pitcher Eden Bigham (15-7) held them to 2 hits.

    Liberty beat Charlotte 6-3 in the Athens, GA Regional. Some picked Charlotte to upset Georgia and win the regional.
