CONGRATS to an intrepid bunch of young men from Stony Brook who came into Alex Box and dominated the Tigers during the super regionals. I have been to most of the home games at Alex Box this season and can say that the Stony Brook Seawolves deserve to be in Omaha. A classy and humbled group of players and coaches! We enjoyed hosting you guys and will be pulling for you in Omaha. Hoping to see the headlines read: "Stony Brook Seawolves, 2012 College World Series Champs!"

Congrats to Stony Brook!! As a huge LSU fan, I enjoyed the heck out of watching this Stony Brook attack a very good pitching staff. That team has no weaknesses and plays the game the way it should be played. Their batters 1-9 simply do not strike out, play great defense (accept Carmona) and pitch extremely effective. The rest of America will get a treat watching them play in Omaha next week.
Mitch seems like a typical UGA fan; I guess it could be worse for LSU today since we could be UGA.
Good luck to Stony Brook!

Gotta disagree with you on Paul Mainieri, Mitch. He’s one of the classiest people in college baseball, and I’ve never found him smug or arrogant in the slightest.

I love it that Stony Brook upset LSU! I am an SEC fan and a UGA alumnus, but I am glad to see a new team in Omaha. Hopefully Kent State can do likewise. Maybe Florida State can finally win it all so Mike Martin can retire. It was nice to see the LSU coach humbled as he is usually smug and arrogant.

Aaron, The call on Diaz was the way the ump had been calling the game all day. You NEVER leave a call up to the ump, Diaz should have taken a cut at the ball.
Furthermore, Diaz should go through anger-management classes as he cannot control his temper. They won't put up with his antics in the pros.

From an LSU fan, congrats to Stony Brook. That team is for real. I will not be surprised to see the Seawolves make a run in the CWS.

Arkansas hung tough and Baylor made too many mistakes Sunday. Hopefully Baylor will play at its best today, and earn that CWS ticket.

I watched the last pitch from Florida-NC State over and over again. I didn't think it was that questionable. I see that pitch called a strike over and over again in college baseball. I actually think it got part of the plate. Diaz definitely can't let it go by with the season on the line.
