I'm a graduate of the University of Arkansas. I was pleased that the Razorbacks made it to the College World Series in Omaha, Neb., and I was even more pleased that they won a couple of games.
But they lost twice to SEC rival LSU so LSU will play Texas in the best–of–three championship series that begins tomorrow.
I know it will be an exciting finish to the baseball season.
But I have to admit that it's a tough call for a Razorback.
I grew up hating the Texas Longhorns because they always seemed to beat the Razorbacks — particularly in football but in other sports as well. And, since the Hogs moved to the Southeastern Conference nearly 20 years ago, LSU has been their chief nemesis in just about every sport.
So a Texas–LSU final in baseball is like the worst of both worlds for me.
I think I'll just wish both teams the best and be grateful Arkansas had a banner season in something.
