Jabe Nicholson: Who really won?

On June 30, my wife and I had our 48th wedding anniversary and all Mississippi celebrated! Horns honking. Cowbells ringing. People hugging strangers. And most folk don’t even know us. What a great place to live!
Well, maybe the anniversary and the celebration were somewhat unrelated. I suppose those boys knocking an orb with a stick in Omaha had something to do with it. But my question is: Who really won?
Hotel owners and vendors in Nebraska are convinced they did. Bulldog fans worldwide thought they won. Guys in “lucky” shirts eating calorie-rich food and cheering loudly probably didn’t have too much to do with the win. Who did?

OMAHA, Neb. – You’re Vanderbilt, and Omaha has turned loud and ominous. So what now?
You had the chance to clinch the College World Series, but Mississippi State’s offense broke loose like one of those afternoon Nebraska thunderstorms and the game turned into a sink of dirty dishes for your side. It ended 13-2 Tuesday night, the most lopsided CWS defeat in school history, and could have been even worse. The pitching numbers were gruesome: 10 walks, four wild pitches, two hit batters, 14 hits. It took 139 Vanderbilt pitches just to get through five innings. If the Bulldogs hadn’t left 14 runners on base, goodness knows what the final margin could have been.
