Wake Forest 2023 baseball season thread (Deacs end historic season with extra inning loss to LSU: Final record 54-12 and top 4 finish nationally)

Worst last 2 game CWS Finals. Horrible baseball to watch.

Wake in the best game in CWS history.... ever.

Game looks pretty good from here.

(To a neutral fan)...after such an amazing round of pool play in the CWS, this Finals series has sucked serious unwashed ass.

Congrats to an exceedingly above board athletic program

 

[pdogdke]

Congrats!

Congrats to the Tigers. The last two games for sure sucked ass. Although the Gators were pretty damn good. I still consider the Wake/LSU games the championhip.

Is a little disappointing the NCAA would hold its finals in a park that appears to be so prone to weather pattern changes

 

[TheReff]

Great hitting Bayou Bengals!

Just win baby.

100 percent agreed. Y'all put everyone on notice.

Any chance Wake ends up #2 in the polls?

Was thinking the same thing. Wake played the (now) champs in three very close games, including a decisive game three that could have gone either way.

So when LSU inevitably has these wins vacated, do we win the natty for not being dirty cheaters?

 

[siff]

Congratulations LSU

 

[thatguy2016]

Yes Florida is

Or not

No we "cheated" in basketball. The wins being vacated were self imposed in football because Vadal Alexanders dad took 180k from a "hospital charity".

Congrats Bayou, glad a fan base that gives a shit won the title

Thank you. I didn't expect us to make it after losing to wake much less win it. It has been a gauntlet of top tier pitching to get here. Thank God the bullpen stepped up. Looking forward to next year.

I have replayed the play at the plate about 50 times in my head this morning. Wake beats this Florida team in a best of 3 no doubt.

Congrats to LSU for being the best team NIL can buy. Hopefully they send some rings to the coaches at NC State and Air Force.
