This is the beauty of us all being able to have our own opinion.
Like TPM said earlier, there are D2 teams down south (and I would add several JUCO teams down south) let alone southern "mid-majors" fully capable of competing with the best P5 has has to offer. Coastal won the College Word a few years ago. In the shortened season this year, UCF pummeled #8 Auburn in a weekend series, Georgia Southern did the same to #3 Georgia. Georgia stopped offering Mercer a home and home series two years ago after Mercer won 7 of the last 8 in the series. Southern Miss has some of the top talent in the country every year. Look at how many pitchers from Furman have already found new homes at P5s. It is different down south, there is such a concentration of talent that everyone is good.

Southern Miss guys play with a chip on their shoulder because they didnt get to play at LSU or State.

Actually I could say the same for a lot of mid D1, D2 players. That's why they are good.
