Slow that roll, homey. Most appearances and subsequent titles: ASU, 22-5 Fullerton, 18-4 Florida St, 22-0 Miami, 25-4 Oklahoma St, 20-1 USC, 21-12 Texas, 36-6 Highest CWS Winning Percentage: USC- .740 Most Finals: USC-12 It's been awhile but USC owned it first.
You live in New Orleans. Step outside and do a little light exercise for a few minutes. Makes you feel like you're melting. We are in a heat wave and getting record high temperatures. And it's still May. They could play in the Superdome but the dome isn't really a good baseball venue and there is not much parking space for all the tailgaters.
You left out: LSU, 18-6. That is the most appearances and titles of anybody from 1987 until now. LSU is still one of the bluebloods of college baseball. USC hasn't been relevant since the 90's. There are Tiger fans who go to Omaha every year even when the team doesn't get that far. There are bars and restaurants decorated in purple and gold. There is even the owner of a New Orleans restaurant who brings massive amounts of food every year and feeds everybody who stops by his tent for free. And wasn't your legendary coach Ron Dedeaux from Louisiana? I know you hate it but now the SoCal relevant college baseball is played in another part of Los Angeles.
No, I intentionally used only those teams with numbers as good as or more than. LSU was the standard-bearer for my post. I already acknowledged that. But you can't simply negate things like 12 Nattys and a winning percentage of over .700 because it didn't happen yesterday. Of course, I've stated it myself plenty of times. He also used to call EVERYONE, "Tiger". But what does that have to do with the discussion? I don't hate it. It is what it is. When the NCAA slapped equivalency status on baseball, it effectively ended USC's ability to compete for the top players. Same with Track & Field, Tennis, Swimming. That said, if ucla gets in the finals, I won't cheer for them but I expect they will win another for the Pac.
