May be able to get the game In before the storms. Then maybe play 2 on Saturday to get the series in.

Size is about right.
We, nor anyone else are ever going to be in the hunt every single year.
Ups and downs happen. Unfortunately our down is too down right now.
and what's looking like 2 downs in a row, at least

No. Finishing last and looking like you may finish last for a 2nd year in a row doesn't happen to everyone. It never happened to us until 2008. Bianco is in his 23rd year at Mississippi and its never happened to him. It shouldn't ever happen at Mississippi State either.
ETA: my entire point is the stadium was built pretty damn close to perfect. The fact I can't sell SEC weekend tickets attests to that.

everyone has bad years including 2 or 3 in a row
how bad fluctuates
If you don't make a regional, coming in last place or 13 or 12 or 11 doesn't matter.

If Ole Miss doesn't win the natty last year, no one would swap our lows and highs for their "consistency".

That's a lot more "did not make" seasons for us. Twice as many. And it completely ignores the fact that our "did not make" seasons were a lot worse than theirs. Also, you could flip your last statement around. If we don't win that title in 2021, no one would swap their record for ours. Bottom line is, we've got some real problems in our baseball program if we're finishing last so often. If this keeps happening, you may be right that we built the stadium the right size.

I'm sorry you can't sell your tickets during a historically bad time for our program and during a potential tornado outbreak.

Which span of years is this? IT obviously includes 2022, but where did you start?

I don't care about not selling the tickets.

I do find it hilarious the number of people who b!tch about something they have no logical understanding of and then don't take advantage of the opportunity of the very thing they whine about.

The way you formatted it is confusing. It looks like we only went to 4 supers when we went to 9. I realize what you were doing but it misrepresents how well we have done since it looks like OM a has been to more Supers.

You have to admit that the predicted weather at least plays a factor in not being able to sell the tickets. And now game times are being shifted. It’s not like it’s going to be sunny and 80 all weekend.

See my thread i just started about the rest of the season.

I can assure you there won't be a better deal than that for season tickets IF demand is anywhere close to what some people on here claim. Yes I understand demand is down this year. But you can't assume when building a stadium that demand is going to be as high as giraffe v@gina every year.

Yeah I mean today’s game is now at 4 PM. I bet there aren’t 2,000 there for that. Folks have to get off work, travel, etc.
