Teams are in the Sec there’s no way that they all these teams from this conference are that good. Just wait till post season when they lose in the first round. Sick of these overrated Sec teams always getting hyped up. End of rant

Yes, but when they beat each other they are "good losses"

and when they lose out of conference games in bowls it's because they are so worn down from a grueling conference schedule.
LOL.

I was referring to the college baseball top 10 rankings. What you also said is correct.

The SEC had 3 of the 8 teams in the CWS last year

and the championship series was LSU vs Florida. The SEC and ACC are pretty dominant in college baseball. The ACC has 4 teams in the top 11 according to the latest D1 Baseball poll, and 6 in the top 14.

But do you really think teams like Alabama and Mississippi State are actually that good?

No, they really are that good as a conference right now

In the last 7 years (6 postseasons due to COVID) the SEC has:
-Won 5 of 6 CWS titles (including 4 straight)
-Accounted for 9 of the 12 finalists in the championship series
-Put no less than 3 teams in the CWS and has gotten 4 in twice (that's 20/48 overall)
In this particular case, the results actually back up the perception. And in college baseball you pretty much have to earn your way through the postseason. You don't just get voted into the top 4.

It's not just one program either. Those 5 championships are from 5 different programs. 9 of the 14 SEC programs have been in the CWS in the last 3 years. Hate the SEC all you want, but that conference dominates college baseball.

The SEC is easily the best baseball conference. I'm not really sure why you think that's even contentious.
And lose in the first round? The SEC has accounted for 17 of the 40 CWS spots over the last 5 tournaments. They have six straight tournaments of having at least 3 teams in the CWS (something every other conference combined hasn't accomplished once in that timeframe). They consistently convert bids to CWS appearances at a higher rate than any other multi-bid conference. 9 of the 14 programs have been to the CWS in the last 3 seasons. The results pretty much speak for themselves.
