    Game CWS Finals: Fresno St. vs. 8 Georgia

    Best of 3 series.

    Fresno St. is the only team with 30 losses to ever reach the CWS Finals. This team started off the year 8-12, and had to win the WAC tournament to even get a bid to the NCAA tourney. They had to go through previous champions in Rice, and beat #2 ranked North Carolina to get to the final round.

    8 Georgia had to go through #1 Miami (FL) and Stanford to reach the final round. This is Georgia's 3rd trip to the College World Series in the last 5 years. This team is very, very strong proving their worth against Miami and Stanford.

    Good luck to both of these teams.

    The battle of the Bulldogs.


    My pick is Fresno St. in 3.

    Fresno St. is 4-0 in elimination games this year in the tourney, so that spells good news for them.

    Fresno St. comes back, and it's an all out brawl as Georgia goes down, 19-10.

    Fresno St. is now 5-0 in elimination games in the tourney, and they even the series up at 1-1.

    Game 3, tomorrow night. Winner is the National Champ.

    Fresno St is the 2008 National Champions!!!

    FSU goes 6-0 in elimination games in the national tourney, and beats Georgia 6-1 in the final game of the CWS.

    Great job to both teams to make it that far. It was a helluva series.

    Fresno St. in 3!!

    Great job by Fresno State. What a wonderful Cinderella Story. Maybe March Madness may have a story like this this coming year.
