This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Big12 adds the other 2 with Texas & TTU. So like SB ACC has by Domerduck

only 1 team in the World Series. Maybe that team (UNC) can finally win it all like FSU did. Of course their 1st opponent (Oregon State) is the team who beat them in the final the last two times they got close. The ACC won their only College World Series when Virginia won in 2015. When Miami won their 4 (last 2001) they were independent.

The Big10 has been pretty ineffective in baseball the last 50+ years. Oregon State also just eliminated the last Big 10 team standing, Minnesota, which hasn't had a team get s close as OSU did 2006 & 2007 since 1966 when Ohio State won it all. Since then 21 current PAC12 teams have won the CWS (6 different schools), 11 SEC (5 different schools), 5 Big 12 (Texas & Ok-once), 4 Miami championships (before they were with the ACC), and ACC once as the only Power conference school champions. Of course the last NC was Coastal Carolina (Sun Belt) who joined Pepperdine (WCC), Rice (Conf-USA), Wichita State (MVC), Fresno State (MWC) & Cal State Fullerton (3x Big West) as teams from the Non Power conferences to do what the Big 10 and ND can't do anymore-compete in baseball.
