From Mississippi Today Online
OMAHA — It began as a baseball game.
It ended as a wild, maroon and white celebration.
After 129 years of playing college baseball — mostly high quality baseball — Mississippi State claimed its first national championship in any team sport Wednesday night. The Diamond Dogs body-slammed defending national champion Vanderbilt 9-0, as more than 20,000 Bulldog fans roared their approval. State fans cheered, they chanted, they clapped, they high-fived, they hugged, they sang, they danced.
On a personal note, it was great to see the whole state rally around a team. Even an Ole Miss fan which my team luck.
