This is the same baseball program that doubled up on trips to Omaha while dealing with 4 different coaches in 4 years. Everybody on the planet (except Fighting Irish and Dawg61) knows that this team will be right in the mix at the end of the season competing for a national seed, and playing well when it matters. That's the culture of this program and always has been. If nothing else, this weekend shows us the gap between us and the best team in the nation. (which is what our fans expect us to be). We are still a top 10 team.
Do we have all the pieces of a "midseason national champion"? No, but the eventual national champion rarely does. We need to be peaking at the right time, and that time has not come yet.
There are plenty of issues we need to clean up and nothing shines a light on those problems like a good ole midseason *** kicking at our house by the best team in the nation. I'm still wooly on these guys and you should be too.
