Devil’s Country – ASU Sports Report

Latest College Baseball Poll

Get on the bandwagon now!  This Sun Devils baseball team may be one of the best ever.  With the likes of POY candidate Brett Wallace leading the way offensively, there is no stopping ASU.   I can’t wait for Omaha and the College World Series.

What’s a Pre-season Rank Worth?

I have got to be honest, its hard to follow all the turnover that goes on in college baseball.  But, with that said I still try to follow the Devils baseball team. (and with good reason this year)  They enter into this season ranked #1 in the nation in one poll. 

I just love watching the regionals, super regionals, and the college world series.  That is some of the best baseball to watch.   I love the drama in Omaha.

Lets just hope that this year Brett Wallace is ready to carry the torch for the Devils through the playoffs and not just the regular season.
