I truly hope that both OM and MSU can be teams fighting on a national level. I really think that the hype, and excitement that could grow in the state would actually help both teams, hell, all three if USM keeps it up. It would be awesome to see a packed field in Oxford or Starkville with both fighting over the SEC. Hell, imagine even the governor's cup if the teams were both top 5. It would actually matter.

Now, maybe we should un-ban truth08, I'd like to hear what he has to say for once.

OP4, I really think that MSU/UM could possibly be the UNC/Duke of college baseball.

Something like that would be great for college baseball, and baseball in general. And as you said, throw in USM and Delta State to the mix as well.

there isn't a rivalry like that in college baseball yet. But the way the sport is growing, it almost needs one. Those would be some huge crowds.

...college baseball rivalries. UM-MSU was #2, behind only Arizona-Arizona State. Today, whenever this subject comes up on the Rivals college baseball sites, UM-MSU consistently finishes in the Top 5-10. The Cohen hiring just makes it even better.

article, and I guess what happened is Ole Miss was down for a while when we were up, and then when Ole Miss was up, we went down. Last year was one of the few times that I remember when both of us were pretty good at the same time.</p>

Yea, and Cohen and Bianco aren't exactly close friends to say the least, which should make things more intense. Someone on Nafoom compared it to Tubberville-Sherrill. To me, those two revived the OM-MSU football rivalry with the back and forth they had. Cohen and Bianco both have big egos, and they don't like each other. It could get fun.
