Now wait a minute!!!
Last year, after State swept the UNC series, I was told by more than one UNC fan in "another" forum that baseball wasn't a major sport on the collegiate level, that it was all football and men's basketball and that any State fan that was pointing out that NC State last year was 4-2 against UNC in the three major sports was - wait a second, it's coming to me, it's on the tip of my tongue - ah, yes, there it is ... "delusional".
Funny how convenient some conveniences are.

Only to flame out in Omaha...AGAIN! Tizu, if I'm not mistaken, you're a Duke fan, correct? Carolina has been playing baseball at a high level for years now. It is a HUGE accomplishment just to make it to the College World Series. Sure, we would like to win a championship, but I'm just as proud of the Diamond Heels for become an annual fixture in Omaha. Mike Fox will break through and win one at some point, don't you worry! Which brings me to my point......When was the last time Duke made a trip to the College World Series??? |

I'm surprised you don't see the irony in my comment.  UNC fans like to pick on Duke Basketball and how they have "flamed out" in the Sweet 16. Is that not a huge accomplishment as well? Why is it ok to downplay basketball, but not baseball? Yes, I am a proud Duke fan, and unfortunately the only sports that have done well as of late is Basketball, Lacrosse, Swimming, Golf and Tennis. |

Hey, State won it's bowl game....how did UNC's turn out? I remember a loss, but hey, at least they scored some points, unlike the game in Carter Finley earlier in the season.

No problem Harnett. Anyway, maybe the Pack can get a rematch with the Heels in the tournament in Greensboro. The ACC is really strong this year according to the rankings I saw. I really wish baseball got more coverage in the media. It's like the bastard child of college sports except when the College World Series comes around. |

I agree baseball should get more coverage. There have been a few more ACC games on ESPNU this season. I think college baseball is very underrated.

Yep, way underrated. I've enjoyed watching the games on ESPNU this year. It amazes me how so many people watch college basketball, but could care less about the NBA. Yet, they will watch MLB, but never pay attention to college baseball. To me, college baseball is better than MLB.
