College Baseball on ESPN

[ChiSoxRowand]

Lately ESPN2 and ESPNU have been showing college baseball. Tonight ESPN2 is showing Oklahoma vs. Wichita St. Has anyone been watching it? I haven't really caught any of it with the Sox and all the other baseball on TV, plus the NBA. I probably won't watch too much of it until the ncaa tourney and the college world series, which I always look forward to. Anybody know any of the top college players who will be drafted high? I wouldn't mind seeing some of those guys play.

No, because I can't stand the sound of aluminum bats making contact with the ball. In addition, I don't care enough about college sports and would rather just watch the White Sox or Bulls.

Got a local guy at Florida State: Ruari O'Connor-should be a senior @ OPRFHS, starting for FSU. Really want to see him play on ESPN at some point.

Tomorrow's match up on ESPN U (Direct TV 609) is Nebraska at Wichita State. Hard to say who is pitching for WSU, but I suspect it will be Mike Pelfrey, one of the nation's best RHP. Nebraska features arguably the nation's best hitter in 3B Alex Gordon. He gets walked a ton, but it would be a great match up. Matter of fact, Baseball America had Gordon and Pelfrey rated as 1 & 2 on their list of college players.

College Baseball has benefited tremendously from the Hockey strike.

GT/UNC on May 19, 20 & 21 should be good as well. UNC has a pitching staff full of "future aces" and GT SS Tyler Greene is a stud.

I'm just in awe of how nice the fields are and the number of fans at those games wish I got to play on a few more fields like that.

NO LSU?!?!:mad:

Ruari O'Connor's playing this summer in Lisle for the DuPage Dragons of the Central Illinois Collegiate League. Best baseball value in town - after our Sox of course.

NO LSU?!?!:mad:

LSU played last week Tuesday against Tulane in the Battle of the Bayou. Tulane won. Many at LSU are called for Smoke Laval's firing. Hard to replace a legend like Skip Bertman.
