Part of the reason why OSU is good is because it's the only Division I baseball program in the state. The University of Oregon doesn't even have a baseball team, so any of the local talent that wants to stay in-state goes to OSU.
Back in the 80s, the Pac-10 was known as the 6-Pac, because only ASU, UA, UCLA, USC, Cal, and "that darned Stanford" played. Or at least in the conference. I think college baseball is becoming more popular, more able to pay for itself and even make money for some schools. And if you can build a successful program, you get all the attention of the postseason.
Wow, Georgia "chose" to be the visiting team today ... supposedly so they could use their own dugout.
UGa is up on So Car 11-4 with the Gamecocks batting in the bot 8th.
Ole Miss and Miami are tied at 8 in the 7th. Rodriguez is 0-3 with a sac.
UGa is up 11-6, Gamecocks batting in bot 9th.
Miami up 13-8, Miami batting bot 8th.

Oh, and I'm going to bed.
UGA advances to the WCS. Miami is winning 14-8 in the top of the 9th.
Miami won to advance to the CWS. Three of the Reds draft pics will be playing.
