Did Tanner Houck not have any decent offers from anyone other that MZ? This kid is too damn good to be pitching for them. I guess some people just want to go to a certain school no matter what.

It's a testament to our team that they were able to beat him.

It was a little unrealistic of some of us -- me included -- to expect three sweeps in a row to end the season. The odds aganst it for anything but a truly elite team are ridiculously high.

Houck is VERY good.

"Houck's top three choices were Missouri, Missouri State and Mississippi."

Glad he didn't end up at OM.

How was he ever able to resist the beauty of their campus? It's mythical beauty is evidently only surpassed by the song of the Sirens.

They spent too much on football and didnt have enough left in the emergency fund to pay Houck.

In all seriousness tho, this kid is good! He had 6 Ks in 4 innings in this game against Vandy. He is shutting them down. He just isnt getting any run support.

And just like that, Vandy breaks it open.

Missouri's D is awful and their bats are worse.

Yep. Back to back errors by the 3rd baseman costs them 2 runs. Its over for MZ.

I hope we don't have to face Vandy again. If we do, can someone strangle that ****ing whistler?

I legitimately felt bad for him when he pitched against us. Kid is a stud but the rest of his team is garbage and gave him less than zero support.

I'm surprised he hasn't already been told to shove it or very bad things will happen.

The campus is much more beautiful to football recruits who are able to see greenery there that recruits from other sports rarely get to see.
