That was a wild 9th on both halves.

Congratulations to the Wildcats -- truly deserving play and a class coach & team.

Anyone notice in the final montage that a squad was using Nebraska's pregame prayer?

Congratulations to Arizona. I definitely think the best team won.

As an old alum of THE original Arizona land grant institution, I'm pleased to see them pull it off. Good pitching staff, it appears. They often used to get topped by the Arizona State Scum Devils somewhere south of the CWS. When I was a student there, it was common to see them in the spring beat up the Big Ten teams that hadn't seen green grass for six months.

I would like to see a national holiday for the day the CWS ends.
