Yeah, I think they asked that question in the first game of our divisional playoffs. That is a long ways from College World Series and the Championship.
There is a lot of talent on the Fresno State team, but that is true of all the teams that made the CWS as well as many of the those that didn't. I think they won with heart. They also may have had the nothing to lose attitude in their favor. Next year, everyone will be gunning for them and the press will be watching. That kind of pressure could have an unfavorable effect.
I am sure Georgia will be coming to play tonight. I hope Fresno is up to the task. Georgia is an excellent team and we can not count on them having another fluke run of mistakes and weak pitching.
Well, the game just started. See you on the other side.

Congrats Fresno State! What a championship win. Broke all kinds of underdog records. And with the exception of one pesky home run, Fresno almost won the championship with a shut-out.
Everyone likes to see an underdog win. Unless of course the underdog is playing your team. Way to go!

Congrats on a great CWS run. Georgia never recovered from last night and how that game played out.
It got in their heads and that's a killer with the way Fresno plays.
Yep, next year nobody will overlook them, just like last two years with Oregon State.
I missed the game with Doc appts today, but wasn't surprised with outcome.
Take care,
Robert
