The NCAA Tournament field of 64 was announced this morning and USC did not make the cut. No real surprise. Losing two of three to Washington State and Cal earlier this month probably sealed the Trojans’ fate. But to go 29-24 with a nine-game winning streak in April and sweep of UCLA (including a seven-run ninth to overcome a 4-0 deficit in one game) finally gave a baseball season a feel-good attitude.
UPDATED: NCAA Division I baseball chairperson Dennis Farrell said USC was one of the first four teams left out of the tournament.
Let the heckling commence
Hey don’t take it too hard trOXans, not even the BRUINS made it this year!! (due to injuries)
So we’ll just polish our NATTY trophy since we are STILL the reigning champs!!! Best of luck to the teams who made it!!
But c’mon, not even Woodie won the NATTY every year!!! oh wait… HE DID WIN THE NATTY EVERY YEAR!!! after year, after year, after year, after year, after year, ETC!!!
Fit UN!!
Agent provocateur
Nice excuse!
no excuses necessary when you are polishing your Natty…JEZRO.
Is that what they’re calling it these days?
The great news is that S bucket only has to polish ONE.
It must real good that the best at Southern Cal could beat the third string bench players for UCLA! Second Fiddle On!
Sounds like Excuse U, right SUCC?
Not excuse … explanation!!!! I thought we went over this already.
UCLA BB team did field 3rd string players during SUCC’s 3 game series sweep. But UCLA makes no excuses for losing. UCLA’s third string should always beat SUCC’s first string anything.
What a pathetic damning reality follow-up to last year by the ‘bel-airians’ – oh well back to worshiping woodie
Commie SUCC, John Wooden won 7 straight NCAA Basketball championship and 10 overall. His team went undeafed in back to back years, and came within 2 game of going 90 – 0. If you went out and poured gas over yourself and struck a match like a monk to protest the Wooden lagacy, nothing Wooden accomplished would change. Wooden wasn’t perfect, far from it, he was human after all. But Coach Wooden could coach college Basketball better than anyone who ever called themselves Head Basketball Coach. Time to find another bone to chew on. Myself, I had a real stinking jones for Georgia Front-an-Scumbagg – the ruin of the LA Rams. But she’s dead, buried not in St. Louis but LA. I still grind my teeth when I her name referenced but I refuse to beat a dead horse. You should too.
Hey Suck It,
Are you still talking about Woodie and preaching that revision history? Yes, Woodie did win, but you forgot the most important part ruin, naturally, you forgot to mention that Woodie CHEATED LIKE NO OTHER WITH SAM GILBERT. Someone said that the payroll over at woodie land was higher than the Lakers at that time. If you notice, before Gilbert showed up, Woodie was a medicore coach. When Gilbert took over the program and told woodie what to say and how to say it, then Woodie started to win. Get your history correct. Sheesh, you ruins do not know anything.
Incredible evidence: “Someone said the payroll…” I think you received an A+ from Professor Arnie’s Falsehood 100 Class: Lying for selfish reasons and making up false evidence.
HEY CHARLIE- YOUR LONE TROPHY IN BASEBALL IS DWARFED BY OUR 12!!! AND STOP MAKING EXCUSES- THE BRUINS WERE FLAT OUT MEDIOCRE THIS YEAR. YOUR TITLE RUN WAS THE ABBERATION
Someone is SHOUTING! Why? UCLA went 5 – 0 and established the lowest NCAA ERA record at Omaha in 2013. If that is an abberation than you need to search for a new dictionary. Yes UCLA Baseball was mediocre this year, which is why I don’t understand why SUCCsters are running around like chickens w/o heads, screaming SUCC swept the UCLA/SUCC series. BFD, you shouted so yourself. Phil, you know what is pathetic, SUCC Basketball has not been to the final four in Sixty (60) years. Fight on Phil, but don’t shout.
F UCLA fans do not like it when you bring FACTS into the discussion..
