296 D1 baseball teams. 48 teams in the super regionals, with 12 in the CWS.

Fresno wouldn't have even sniffed the super regionals had they not won their conference championship.

My point is they overcame incredible odds in winning the CWS, let alone just getting there in the first place. The record books would agree with me. Like Steelblue said, this is like a 15 or 16 seed winning the NCAA hoops tourney.
Yep, what Fresno State did was huge. The only thing that would be more of an accomplishment would be if a cold weather school won the CWS.
