      It was brilliant coaching when you got a big deficit and you got to win two games in next 2 days... why waste good pitching to make a loss look good??
      I would have stuck a bunch of freshman or up-and-coming pictures that are not my best...in the losing game..
      I would not waste any of my good pitching. At all ..
      And save them for the last two games...if you ask ne that is what he did...

      @@stun2187 so there are two big differences. One, the NCAA tournament in basketball has 68 teams at least. College football has four. That alone is way more inclusive.
      The other big difference however is the conference tournaments. Almost every team has the ability to play themselves in the tournament. Conference tournaments winners get automatic bids to the main tournament. So everyone has a chance. The only exceptions are that In some baseball conferences you have to qualify for the conference tournament. But for many of the tournament for their postseason lives begins the week before the actual tournament. I consider the conference tournaments almost to play in round. That's a big difference between basketball and football

      Actually that first game was the best case scenario for them. Their rotation is only 5 guys basically and we jumped on them so quickly they that they got to wave the white flag and not use any of those guys. If game 1 was a little closer we could have forced them to use their other pitchers. Then our bats just went cold unfortunately.

However, Avent's team has the intestinal fortitude to win the CWS. It might sound far fetched but beating Arkansas in Fayetville is probably just as tough as at least reaching rhe CWS final.

    This was the exact sequence of events for NC state to win. Bats just went cold at the wrong time. They have been cold ever since Nebraska other than the BP pitching we got game 1. Christian Franklin going 0-14 with 12 strikeouts starting with Nebraska is just unacceptable for your cleanup hitter. 7 of 9 guys in the lineup were slumping pretty hard and NC state was hot.

    NC State's record over the last 39 games is 31-8. Arkansas's was 30-9. State is hot and can beat anybody right now. They exposed a weak pitching staff sans Kopps and the first starter. Avent saved his pitching rotation after getting down 7-1 in the first game. It paid off in the end. Congrats to the Hogs on a great year. Great stadium and fans.

    • @scotthowrey1

    • @mtraymond89
      @mtraymond89 3 года назад +1

      I agree, but at the same time, I'd like to see the strength of schedule over NCS's 31-8 stretch over Ark's 30-9 (difference of only 1 win/game). No offense to the ACC but their talent is not that of the SEC. I am a Tennessee fan, to be clear. But don't disrespect Arkansas' historic run against the talent they did so against.
      NC state absolutely beat them out in Supers, but I think it's tough to say what NC-state did in the stretch was 'better' than Arks. NC state was also without a conference championship in a (not arguably) lesser conference/talent pool. Losing to an unranked (hot handed) Duke who got easily handled by my vols in regionals.

Obviously we will have the huge loss in Kopps and Franklin, but that should be offset from the insane recruiting class we have coming up.

    DVH made one mistake.....that was leaving Kopps in the 9th. You could see in the 8th that the hits were getting harder and longer and we were lucky that the one hit to left field in the 8th didnt go out. Kopps was tired and he was not getting the drop on his cutter as much. If Wicklander started the 9th then maybe things would be different. Our hitting was horrid throughout both regionals and supers so Arkansas seemed to peak a bit too early.
