A historic game

If you are a college baseball fan and don’t have the sports package on Cox cable you missed a record-setting college baseball game Sunday.

I couldn’t believe it as I sat in my favorite chair watching Florida State destroy Ohio State 37-6 in the NCAA Tallahassee Region championship game. The score was 32-0 at one time and there was nothing the Seminoles could do wrong as they teed off on one Buckeye pitcher after another in what seemed more like a slow-pitch softball game than a college baseball game.

Along the way the Seminoles set or tied 18 NCAA records. The 37 runs is the most ever scored in a tournament game. FSU set a record for hits in a game with, I believe, 38. The Seminoles set a record for total bases, doubles and the list goes on.

To put Florida State’s 37-run explosion in perspective, Tennessee’s football team never managed to score 37 points in a single game all year. Of course that’s why Phillip Fulmer is out and Lane Kiffin is now the guy on the hotseat at Rocky Top. But that’s another thought for another day.

For now it’s just hard to imagine any team having a better game than the Seminoles because nobody ever has. It was a game I won’t likely forget anytime soon.
