Outlook for the upcoming season...

Post by Left Seater »

I like Texas to win it all. They were a game away last year and should be better this season. As always the Big XII will be deep with Baylor and A&M right there. The SEC and ACC are loaded too with LSU and Miami taking the lead in their conferences respectively. RICE will be ok, but we will be relying on unproven pitching with three being taken with the first 8 picks in last years draft.

Surprise team to watch, Tulane. I have seen them twice over the past two years and have been very impressed. This could be their year.

Rice definately has a rebuilding project on their hands.

Atleast winning the ACC will mean something to the noles with the addition of the canes. Miami plays a couple of hard road series but other than that they seem to be the favorite early on in the ACC.

My preseason top 5:
1. Cal State Fullerton
2. Tulane
3. Texas
4. Miami
5. LSU

Can't disagree with any of those. Looking forward to the Tuesday games against Tulane and Texas, as the WAC will again offer no challenge for the OWLS.

I guess we can look forward to again winning the Big XII conference title. We will face OK A&M, TX A&M, and Baylor in the Astro's College Classic, and Texas in two mid-week games.

The very epitome of "The game has passed you by."
When Larry goes it will only get worse as we'll be stuck with that grade A dumbass Galloway running the program.

I attended the tejass and Baylor series last season while visiting my mother. The base coaching by Galloway was so sickening that I was honestlytempted to charge the the field and deck him in the jaw twice after losing to texass in games where we out and out out played them :(

gotta say look out for Iona... only for the reason that one of my friends just got a spot on the staff. starting out the season against GT, that should be fun for him.

i'm looking in on another average season for penn state. some returning talent, but just not got the full team to compete even for a top spot in the big ten.

Stanford will be back in the CWS.

Arizona, ASU and Washington are legitimate potential top 10 teams.
SC could be a sleeper.

Does Football give schollies to everyone on the traveling squad?

Schollies are fine where they are, it leads to more competiveness...

Still like the sig though.
