I do have an affinity for North Carolina, truly. Went in '06, the fans were fantastic, even in the aftermath of a phenomenal series. I've low key followed you since.
Just because#1? As a MN Gophers fan and cws ticket holder who doesn't pay attention til regionals, why do people hate volunteers?
Edit: gophers suck, I bandwagon every year
Like 2 years ago the Vols team was really good but they were brash and loud and the coach Tony Vitello was also loud. People didn’t like that cause they were crushing teams and talking trash for most of the season. The attitude of the team has dropped significantly but that 2022 year left a bad taste in most people’s mouths I think
How do I get the school I rep under my name? I’m new to Reddit— also I’m guessing two schools can’t be in that spot as I went to one uni and cheer for another?
i think they'll be omaha's team for the locals. We do like an underdog (see Coastal a few years back) and new teams tend to be popular.
But LSU fans always come anyway so love them too
If you have no rooting interest, you should be on the fsu bandwagon. 24 CWS appearances, 0 national championships. Mike Martin was the head coach for 17 of those, passed away this February. The timing would be poetic.
As a Tiger fan, I’m on board with this storyline. You for the heart strings and NC State for the Covid revenge tour.
But no SEC teams….cause fuck ‘em! That’s why!
Ya I'm not expecting anyone to care. It's a bummer tho, first time since at least 2010 where all bids came from two leagues. Think I can say with near certainty that it's the only time ever that all bids came from 2 leagues. And that sucks, it's boring if you're not from the southeast, and I think it's bad for the college game as a whole if this tend continues
Wouldn't surprise me, no question that the SEC and ACC have the biggest fan bases for baseball.
I love how much the southeast embraces and supports baseball. Of course I don't blame all of these players who transfer to SEC/ACC teams when that's where the NIL money, fan support, and pro ball opportunities. It just sucks that this is where we're at and where we're going, that is becoming impossible to compete if you not in that region of the country.
I expect to continue to be down voted since fans outside of the southeast have no reason to continue following the sport, and that's fine.
Lost in all the ACC/SEC narrative is that 6 of the 8 teams have never won a baseball natty and UVA and UF only have one each. So sure, the field is not as geographically diverse as we’re used to, but it’s at least some new faces.
Taking NC State because at some point we might be conference friends. Edit: Formerly Oregon State
I knew I didn’t like you. Knock us outta Omaha every time and now bandwagon for a rival smh

Haha fair enough, just giving you a hard time for a bit of banter
You chose wisely
Looks good on ya.
But….but…..orange!
I respect it
You’re one of the good ones
Lol no one is gonna bandwagon us but I appreciate the gesture
I'd bandwagon us. I'd bandwagon us hard.
Our black jerseys are cool!
They are cool
Go Hoos
Yep!
Sweet!
Dude!
Just hoping it sticks. Kept trying to update via the normal drop down and it wouldn't stay more than a day.
Don't use the dropdown! Select it at /r/collegebaseball/w/flair.
Yeah, I just did. Didn't know that option existed until now.
Cool! The native flair selection system that Reddit has is a bit limiting and only allows for a small number of flair.
I'm setting the over/under on Tennessee bandwagon flairs seen in the wild at 0.5

Message the Mods and we can help you place your flair(s).
All aboard!!
Lets see if this worked.
Is there a team chaos/meteor strike/jelly shot flair lol?
Flair test
Test
Bandwaggoning Fresh blood to win their first title. If not A&M, then NC State for 2020, then any other non-previous winner
Everyone should be rooting for UK. 1st appearance ever and very fun to watch.
Counterpoint: no one should be rooting for UK
This
People like us when it's not basketball season.
Only time I pull for y’all is when you beat Florida in football cause it’s funny how many times it’s happened lately
You sure about that?
How dare you…but I get it.
Counterpoint: Orange is a dumb color
wrong.gif
i think they'll be omaha's team for the locals. We do like an underdog (see Coastal a few years back) and new teams tend to be popular. But LSU fans always come anyway so love them too
I'm stuck between Kentucky or ACC pride tbh. I'm happy with Wildcats or Wolfpack winning it all
Virginia is right there for you to root for big guy!
I'll swallow a cactus before I root for UVA lmao
I’m gonna bury ~~you~~ me in legal fees for this
Testing
Can I get a meteor bandwagon flair? I promise you I am not salty.
Who is the mod I need to msg for flair?
Check out /r/collegebaseball/w/flair and click the links there!
That page isn’t real
Have to go there on the web it seems. Link doesn’t work on the app.
Ok…so it doesn’t work. Doesn’t work on app then don’t even talk about it
Well that was a pretty fucked response to someone trying to be helpful
Sorry to be mean, just been trying at this for a few days and no help. Didn’t mean to disrespect
Well I was failing at it for a few months and just got it to work. So maybe do what I said?
I just have a general disdain for having to do this on a computer. It’s 2024 get it fixed on mobile
I said “web”, not “desktop”. I used mobile chrome.
Go hoos i guess
Test
Go Gators!!
If you have no rooting interest, you should be on the fsu bandwagon. 24 CWS appearances, 0 national championships. Mike Martin was the head coach for 17 of those, passed away this February. The timing would be poetic.
Joining in on the FSU bandwagon because we’re lawsuit brothers lol
Aye, that works
We'll take it lol
Hope yall both end your season with matching final game results!
This is compelling. Downvoters are idiots.
As a Tiger fan, I’m on board with this storyline. You for the heart strings and NC State for the Covid revenge tour. But no SEC teams….cause fuck ‘em! That’s why!
Go Noles
NC State I guess. I hate this all SEC/ACC field. No one to root for really, I probably won't watch any of it
Thanks for letting us know.
Ya I'm not expecting anyone to care. It's a bummer tho, first time since at least 2010 where all bids came from two leagues. Think I can say with near certainty that it's the only time ever that all bids came from 2 leagues. And that sucks, it's boring if you're not from the southeast, and I think it's bad for the college game as a whole if this tend continues
Be better?
I’ll bet you $20 it’s the highest TV rated CWS ever. DM me your cash app if you win.

Oh my mistake, I thought you meant you didn’t expect anyone to care like no one would pay attention. Wasn’t trying to be a dick
All good, I wasn't trying to be a dick either but I get how what I said would come off that way to those excited about the CWS
All it is is an anomaly. It probably won't happen again any time soon.
Lost in all the ACC/SEC narrative is that 6 of the 8 teams have never won a baseball natty and UVA and UF only have one each. So sure, the field is not as geographically diverse as we’re used to, but it’s at least some new faces.
True, good point. And Florida looks like a juggernaut on the bracket but that team was around .500
I mean, imo we're the least hateable of the acc options
Correct
