College baseball is a fickle thing. Each Division-1 program is allotted 11.7 scholarships that are usually spread across a handful of players, partial scholarships given here and there to full out the entire roster. This leaves state schools like the University of Nebraska at a severe advantage against a private school like Creighton University, where tuition costs alone can cost as much as a brand new Acura RL.
It then becomes a game with a bit more of a political feel than other games, solely for that reason. There's a preconceived notion that the Bluejay ballplayers were born and bred with a 'silver spoon' and are spoiled players who had the means to play baseball year round.
