Georgia Bulldogs (41-23-1) vs. Miami Hurricanes (52-9)
Both rost
ers are loaded with studs...five players were drafted in the first round of the recent baseball draft...The U had Yonder Alonso (firstbase, Reds); Jemile Weeks (secondbase, Athletics) and Carlos Gutierrez (pitcher, Twins) while the Dawgs had Gordon Beckham (shortstop, White Sox) and Joshua Fields (pitcher, Mariners)...Alonso was drafted 7th overall and Beckham eighth...three more Hurricane players were selected between rounds 2-4...Beckham showed why he is one of the top players in the country as he led Georgia (.401, 26 homers, 72 RBI, 17 SB)...pitching has been the Dawgs weakness as their best starter has an ERA of 4.25...
Miami may not have that one superstud like Beckham, but they are flat out loaded...Alonso and Weeks both hit .367 for the year...Alonso clubbed 71 homrs while Weeks hit 11 homers and had 21 stolen bases...outfielder Blake Tekotte was close behind with (.357, 11 hr, 47 RBI, 26 SB)...the Hurricanes' ace is Chris Hernandez who went 11-0 with a 2.62 ERA and gave up only 3 homers all year...Carlos Gutierrez is the closer with 13 saves...
